Hobnail at the Ruby Bay Store
The road up the Bluff is closed, but Stafford Drive is open to the Ruby Bay Store and Ruby Bay Kitchen. Come along for music starting 4pm Sunday 13 July. The Store opens from 3pm.
Hobnail are three time finalists at the New Zealand Music Awards (Best Folk Album and Best Country Song twice). They celebrated 30 years of active service in 2024, and now in 2025 are touring across New Zealand with their new album by core members Rob Joass (vocals, guitar, mandola) Jo Moir (vocals, violin) and Hamish Graham (vocals, guitars, percussion). The album features reworked versions of some of their much loved originals as well as some crowd favourite Kiwi and Australian cover versions. These songs highlight the vocal and instrumental interplay between these three exceptional musicians. 'Refreshingly down-to-earth, and lovely with vocals so tightly knit they could be family.' Mike Alexander, NZ Herald.
With“Jo Moir’s barnstorming fiddle”, great songs and spectacular harmonies, Hobnail’s live show will make your heart sing!

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
60% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.7% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated
