Awesome Auckland Arts Festival

Well hello there!

What fun was to be had at the Auckland Arts festival.

We took the train into Auckland City .... a novelty for the Hamiltonian members of the band...



The festival was at Aotea Square in the centre of the city...



Some decorators had been hard at work preparing for the festival...



We had some little Roberelli's along to help with the instrument portage...




And some big Roberelli's to carry the big instruments...



The double bass is a heavy old thing and Paulorelli likes to help...



Spot the sneaky sky tower!


We had a lovely concert and a wonderful audience! 

Happy Days!

Standing here like a Tree...

Well Hello there.

Summer is coming to an end and soon the leaves will be changing colour.

We, the Roberelli's, do love a good tree of colour!

We love this tree that Sophierelli drew for our album art. What a corker.



This is one of Shellerelli's favourite trees.....



One of the little Roberelli's found this interesting little nest amongst the roots of a tree near to where we live.  I wonder who made that?



Roberelli has some favourites as well..... 

Here he is under a One Tree Hill beauty.....



And here he is exploring a pretty big Morton Bay Fig with some little Roberelli's.



This is a lovely thicket of trees at our local arboretum...



The boys tend to get a bit carried away when we visit the arboretum...



Send us a photo of your favourite tree to us here.

Rob has written some lovely tunes about trees.  

Have a listen here to a tune about a tree wanting to be stationary but not stationery!

Happy Sunny Days!

If you go down to the woods today....

Well hello there!

What a cool time we had with the kids and parents of Hamilton (and Beyond) at the Teddy Bears Picnic.

We unloaded the car...




Talked to the sound crew...


Paul checked our tuning...


Rob worked out where the leads went...


Shell fiddled about...


We then blew up a rather large bouncy sweet Louise (click here to hear about her)....


And on we went.



Thank you all the kids and parents who came to the concert.  

You were a super great audience.

Happy Days!

The Teddy Bears are coming

Well hello there!

What a busy time we are having getting ready for the Teddy Bears Picnic....

Paul has been busy practising...




So has Shell...



Paul has also taken his favourite toy to Free FM in Hamilton for a wee chat about the Teddy Bears Picnic.

Soggy really enjoyed the bike ride...



And thought he might have a go at the Radio DJ's job!


See you at the Picnic!


Happy Days!
