I will be joining Singer Songwriter artists from across Northland - and as this is only my second time there, even I’m expecting to be surprised! We are so fortunate to have so much amazing talent right on our back doorstep.

HOUSE CONCERT - SIM BASTICK & ROSIE

HOUSE CONCERT - SIM BASTICK & ROSIE

Sim Bastick & Rosie

Two fantastic songwriters. One great night ONLY.

Sim is a fellow singer/songwriter – with some absolutely fantastic sounds on her recently released album, ‘Find Me’.  Together, she and I have decided to kick off some House Concerts.
Our first is going to be held in The Ballroom, Writer’s Retreat, Saturday 7.30pm.   

Originally from Aus, Sim will be sharing a bit of her journey and songs from her album.  And I will be sharing songs from the album I’m working to complete.
The idea is an intimate, magical evening – a deliberate pause before the bustle of Xmas. 

BYO a cushion to sit on and something to drink.

Places limited - message me to secure your spot.

TICKETS $20pp (or $30 for two people)
