This evening brings you 3 exciting new acts from Tāmaki Makaurau:
Raging Flowers is a Chinese-Kiwi singer-songwriter who's on a mission to make a difference in mental health through music. This is her first headline gig, supported by the talented solo artist Bartertown, and the shiny new band These Former Things.
Raging Flowers is an unusual musician. Although she's always loved music, she pursued a career in Tech. She excelled as a Software Engineer in the audio, AI and the Blockchain industries, until she got burnt out and took a career break where she discovered her callings. She's a strong woman although she looks small and sweet. Her other background in professional kickboxing gives her the strength for her hilarious honesty which can be found in her lyrics. Her music is about exploring and befriending emotions. She describes her music as self-help indie-pop with hints of folk punk.
Bartertown is a new act out of Tāmaki Makaurau, created by David Rowe. You'll hear the power of rock with the lyrics and distinctive voice of the singer-songwriter - all inspired by the places, people and sounds of New Zealand.
These Former Things is an indie rock band with folk and roots vibes hailing from Tāmaki Makaurau's northwest.
This evening will be full of locally made original songs, many of them unreleased. This will be an evening of openness, vulnerability, as well as strength and hope. Come along to feel the energy and support local music!
