Биография

Don McGlashan, who these days splits his time between Auckland and Vancouver, is best known as the co-founder and frontman of the iconic and internationally acclaimed The Mutton Birds. Living in London in the '90s and signed to Virgin Records UK, The Mutton Birds forged an international audience. Their records were acclaimed; Q Magazine in the UK described them as coming “from the same cerebral power-pop mother lode as Big Star and early REM”, and legendary US publication Trouser Press said they made “sparkling guitar pop records” that combined “the dramatics of moody Australians like the Go-Betweens and the Triffids with the pure pop craft of Split Enz and Crowded House”. Their album Envy Of Angels made the UK Sunday Times' Ten Best Albums Of The Year list in 1996. Before The Mutton Birds, Don was the drumming singer for seminal and hugely influential early ‘80s Auckland post-punk outfit Blam Blam Blam and then half of the equally popular acoustic theatre-music duo The Front Lawn. Since The Mutton Birds, Don has made four solo albums, Warm Hand (2006), Marvellous Year (2009), Lucky Stars (2015), and Bright November Morning (2022), the latter of which was his first NZ No. 1 album in a four decade career with top ten albums in each decade.
