Gig Information

New Horizons is the sequel to Acoustic Routes' highly successful Bloomin' Youth concert last year, featuring talented young acoustic performers from the Wellington region.

*Anne Russell has sung in various choirs and musical groups over many years, including the Wellington Youth Choir. She plays guitar and piano and likes tinkering with whatever other musical instruments are lying around. Her voice has the purity of morning dew on a fresh summer's day!

*Rupert and Grace are two young musicians from Wellington who share a love of strong and clear vocal harmony. They sing like a two person
choir. Their performances include Appalachian folk songs, contemporary popular music, and African-style vocal arrangements.

*Matt Pickering released his debut full-length album The Burnside Church earlier this year. It is part lament, part new season. It is intelligent, personal, honest, and Wellingtoncentric. Recorded at the Braeburn Studio with Robbie Duncan. Think finger picking in alternate tunings, stories put to song. Matt will have banjo player, Brendan Schenk, accompanying him.

*Eb & Sparrow
Original Americana from soulful songwriter and singer Ebony Lamb, supported by musicians Bryn Heveldt, Jason Johnson Bass. and Nick
Brown. A wonderful combination of country, Appalachian, and Spanish influence in a completely original form, not to be missed.

And a fabulous way to get in the groove for the New Horizons concert - the Americana jam session from 4
to 7 pm, also at Meow. You can hear some of the Wellington region's finest players and singers of country, blues, Cajun, old-timey, boogie-woogie and all-round good-time American music, and it's an open session so you can join in.
