Holiday Records , Music First and Jandal Records are delighted to present Live at The Upside Down Lounge Volume 1 by Joe Kaptein , one of the hottest talents in the NZ Jazz scene and keyboardist on The Circling Sun's hugely successful second album. Recorded live at Goblin in the heart of Ponsonby, Auckland NZ on 26 May 2026, the album features Hank Trenton on bass, George Brajkovich on drums, Ruby Fainaa on percussion and a special guest appearance by NZ Jazz icon, Nathan Haines (on "Intergalactic Love Song"). The album was conceptualised by Music First and recorded live (with the assistance of live mix engineer Thomas Healey ) to celebrate the one year anniversary of Joe's weekly residency at Goblin - The Upside Down Lounge, and aims to capture the spirit of classic live jazz LPs recorded for the likes of Blue Note and CTI Records.
