Wheel Of Experience"Neither musical nor theatrical experiences come any more astonishing than the Wheel Of Experience. The three performers seem to have stepped straight out of one of the epic folk ballads that are the basis of this intimate and utterly engaging show. You hear about good performers bringing songs to life, but in this case the songs seem to have given birth to the performers." NICK BOLLINGERA HUNDRED TREES by WHEEL OF EXPERIENCE, released 19 September 20131. A HUNDRED TREES2. SUNRISE3. DON BUCK4. CONFESSION5. WE DID SEALPETER DAUBE : voice, banjolin, cigar box slide, zhongruanDAVID WARD: 5 string banjo, archtop guitar, voiceDAVE KHAN: 5 string banjo, fiddle, cigar box slide, mandolin, voiceA HUNDRED TREESIn 1900 workers and their families from all over the world arrived on the NZ volcanic plateau. It was winter, raining, 12 families to one tent.They were enticed here by the promise of employment on the Raurimu Spiral on the main trunk line. Gambling was rife, cocktails of whisky, meths and cough mixture helped to ease the hardship. In a world where people strive to get ahead, we tell a story of high stakes and betrayal.SUNRISEThis song is inspired by the settlers at Cornwallis, who after months at sea arrived to find their promised utopian community didn’t exist. This is an epic painting of a couples need for survival in a new, harsh and ultimately unforgiving world. It tells a story of separation and sacrifice, of people risking everything just to exist.DON BUCKPaying tribute to the legend of larger than life Portuguese entrepreneur Francesco Rodriguez Figuera. He has been described as the Original “Westie”, who with the blessing of the authorities ruled an indentured criminal workforce and often debaucherous shantytown in West Auckland.CONFESSIONConfession is based on the real and erudite confession of Dick Burgess and the murders for profit he and his gang committed against Otago gold diggers. As a young boy, having been arrested, shipped and flogged for misdemeanors he vowed he’d take a life for every lash”. His last words at the gallows were: “I’ve got no more fear of death than going to a Wedding”WE DID SEALWe Did Seal is based on the fate of a band of Sealers, who in 1810 were left on a remote NZ island with their 10 000 skins and abandoned when their ship was wrecked, never to return. With an ax an adze an and knife they set about cutting a path back to civilisation.
