Tim Mahon And Kerfuffle - The Great Kerfuffle (Vinyl LP)
Following the release of the single 'Vote' on May 11th, Tim Mahon unleashes his new album The Great Kerfuffle, and he'll be hitting the road with his band.
Tim Mahon has a track record in multiple areas of Aotearoa music, and somehow he's also found the time to keep writing his own music. His first solo album Music From a Lightbulb from 2002, was cleverly released under the name The Moth.
As the former bass player of The Plague (1978-1979), The Whizz Kids (1979-1980), and Blam Blam Blam (1980-1982), he's been an integral part of these highly influential Aotearoa bands.
Behind the scenes, Mahon has also been involved with a number of initiatives which have had a long-lasting impact. He became the project manager at the Otara Music Arts Centre (OMAC) in 1987, where he got local band Bamboo signed to PolyGram, and to open the BB King/U2 show at Western Springs.
While at OMAC, another enterprise of Mahon's was setting up a Performing Arts Award (now known as Stand Up Stand Out or “Suso”) while making the connections that would lead to the release of the groundbreaking compilation Proud: An Urban Pacific Streetsoul Compilation, and its follow-up national tour. (There's so much more to tell, you can read Alan Perrott's story about OMAC on AudioCulture).
Now Tim Mahon is unleashing The Great Kerfuffle album, with a top-notch team around him: The Kerfuffle band features members of Ardijah and Bamboo, O.M.C., Newmatics and Blam Blam Blam.
At a time where every man and his dog are reforming and providing nostalgia, Mahon is presenting new music, with relevance to the interesting times we live in.

Info columns
PRE-ORDERS
Flying Nun only debits your account for a pre-order when it has actually landed in our store. We believe this is fair because supply can often be unreliable - availability and release dates frequently change without notice. Pre-order with Flying Nun and you can cancel any time prior to the product arriving at our store.
OUT OF STOCK ITEMS
Flying Nun only make products available to purchase on our website when they are actually physically held at the store (except pre-orders). Vinyl availability from all local and international suppliers changes on a daily/hourly basis. Therefore, it is not possible to guarantee an online order for many items not currently held in stock.
SHIPPING
Flying Nun offers free shipping in Aotearoa New Zealand on orders over $80. We have record stores in both Auckland and Wellington and will ship your record from whichever store is nearest. We aim to pack send your order next business day. Pick ups are also available from both stores.
