Hector McLachlan is bringing his quartet, **The Hectet**, over the Tasman Sea to present their debut album of melodious and grooving electroacoustic jazz music, _Here Comes The Hectet_ (out 25 July). Hector is a pianist and composer from Te Whanganui-a-Tara / Wellington, Aotearoa / New Zealand.  
  
They will also be playing unreleased selections from their recently recorded follow-up album, _French Politics_, across two sets of original compositions. The music draws from a wide pool of influences, reflecting an open and ambivalent attitude to genre that has given it a unique and broad appeal.  
  
Hector (piano, synth) has played across Aotearoa and the world with acts like Revulva, The Unknot, Rachel Andie, and Naarm legends The Teskey Brothers. Joining him are three Põneke demons: Phoebe Johnson (bass), Jasper Holloway (guitar), and Abe Baillie (drums), as well as very special guest Toby Leman (saxophone).  
  
The Hectet aims to please, and they are very excited to bring their soulful, expressive stylings across the ditch.
