A short, sharp dose of live music and wine to ease you into the weekend. Friday nights at 5:30pm, we host intimate sessions in the wine shop — one artist, one set, done in under an hour. Come for a tasting, stay for the tunes, then head out for dinner or drift into the evening, no rush.
After building momentum in 2026 with recent successful repeat invites to play solo shows around Hawke's Bay, including a great night at Decibel Wines earlier this year, Phil is back for another intimate and unplugged show at Decibel Wines, armed with 6 and 12 string acoustic guitars, harmonicas and wealth of brand new material to debut, covering Country, Americana, Folk and Blues.
With work beginning later this year on a new solo album, come and get a sneak preview of new songs from a praised singer songwriter who has graced many stages around Europe and large UK festivals such as Glastonbury and the Maverick Americana Festival.
