Darren Watson – Sings John Hiatt
Live at Kumeu Arts | Saturday 15 November 2025

Aotearoa’s own bluesman Darren Watson returns to Kumeu Arts Live for a special night honouring one of Americana’s songwriting greats – John Hiatt.

With his searing guitar work, soul-drenched vocals, and decades of experience on stage and in the studio, Darren brings Hiatt’s rich catalogue to life in a way only he can. Expect heartfelt ballads, razor-sharp storytelling, and plenty of foot-tapping groove as Watson pays tribute to the legendary American songwriter behind classics like Have a Little Faith in Me, Thing Called Love, and Perfectly Good Guitar.

Whether you're a longtime Hiatt fan or new to his music, this intimate evening of masterful musicianship and lyrical brilliance is not to be missed. Darren’s deep respect for the craft shines through in every note.

? Saturday 15 November, 2025 – Doors 7.30pm | Show 8pm
