This NZ Music Month, the McNicol Homestead and Museum celebrates local pioneers The Clevedonaires. Formed in 1962, this Clevedon family band rose from practising in the farm shed to touring internationally as The Cleves. Discover their story and classic sounds this weekend!

Remember the Clevedonaires?
Before they took on Australia and Britain as The Cleves, Gaye, Graham, and Ron Brown, along with guitarists Milton Lane and Rob Aicken, were just local kids with a passion for live British and American pop. From gigs in the Clevedon and Otau Halls to appearing on local TV shows like C'mon, they truly paved their own way.

This fantastic photograph capturing their early days was recently donated to the museum by Ron Brown.
