Darren only works with the best. The lineup varies from gig to gig but not the quality of the band

Bass Guitar
Sid Limbert: Sid is one of the most experienced blues musicians on the scene with years spent as the bassist for various Midge Marsden lineups and a foundation member of the Remarkable Beat Roosters, a band that blues legend BB King loved so much he invited them on stage with him and embraced each of them!

Elliotte Fuimaono: Elliotte was the funky bass player behind chart toppers Southside Of Bombay. He is solid, funky and quite frankly, scary!

Drums
Darren Mathiassen: Darren is one of Wellington's most in demand session drummers. At the moment he is working with everyone from Deva Mahal to Charlotte Yates to Module. He brings a stunning musicianship to everything he plays.

Fred Limbert: Fred is bassist Sid's son and has blues heritage that few can even get close to. At 14 years old he was playing a juke joint in Mississippi with Willie Foster and T-Model Ford. He was also a member of legendary blues band The Remarkable Beat Roosters.

Keyboards
Peter Blake: Peter has worked alongside artists as diverse as Aussie soul diva Renee Geyer and legendary big band leader Roger Fox. When not burning up the keyboard with DW he can be found in his Wellington studio knocking out soundtracks and jingles.

Simen 'Bluekeys' Taylor: Simen is without doubt the best pure blues piano player in New Zealand at the moment. He sounds like Otis Spann and Pinetop Perkins. He's 25 years old and hails from Norway?!! Go figure . . .
