Most Abel backing

What do members of Goldenhorse, Pluto and goodshirt have in common? They're all in the same band to support local singer-songwriter Steve Abel.

The Kiwi supergroup backing the muso and Greenpeace activist includes Goldenhorse's Geoff Maddock on guitar, Pluto frontman Milan Borich on drums, Pluto band-mate Mike Hall on double bass and Gareth Thomas of goodshirt on accordion.

The band play a launch gig for Abel's debut album, Little Death at the Schooner Tavern, Auckland on February 24.
