Mainstreet Whanganui has confirmed the final music line-up for the Mainstreet Caboodle on Saturday, January 21, from 10.30am-10pm.

This year’s musical line-up is an eclectic mix of top local bands and musicians with the likes of Damn Raucous Brass, Whanganui Jazz Orchestra, Whiskey Mama, Green Floor and Lizzie de Vegt to name a few.

Mainstreet Whanganui’s Geoff Follett says one of the bands who were initially set to play, The Replicants, are now unable to join the line-up.

“Happily though, we’ve managed to tee up another fantastic Whanganui band to play in their stead — My Damned Kind — who’ll play a mix of classic rock numbers that are sure to get the Block One crowd moving!”

My Damned Kind will play on the Block One stage at 7pm.

As well as the three stages at Majestic Square, Ridgway St and Block One (of Victoria Ave), Geoff says there’ll also be a number of roving street performers — including his own band, Hot Potato, who will be live on the street on Block Four for several hours throughout the day.
