We’d known Steve from \u003cstrong\u003eAxemen\u003c\/strong\u003e days and it was always great to catch up with him! He’d been to a few \u003cstrong\u003eOutsiders\u003c\/strong\u003e gigs and was really into what we were doing. One day he sent a link to one of his songs which he said he’d like us to play. We were rapt when we heard it. The vocal delivery and the lyrics were amazing. Pure McCabe! Steve was deep into a \u003cstrong\u003eBryan Ferry\u003c\/strong\u003e phase and started bombarding us with \u003cstrong\u003eRoxy Music\u003c\/strong\u003e clips. You can hear the influence in the chords and phrasing. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSadly, Steve never heard our version. Jo sent him a text the night we played it live but he passed away that weekend. It was a privilege and a blessing to receive such a wonderful gift as “Festival of Saints” from our dear friend \u003cstrong\u003eLittle Stevie McCabe. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eKua hinga te tōtara i Te Waonui-a-Tāne.
