Whangateau Hall is closed for refurbishment, but that doesn’t mean the music has to stop.  Leigh Hall Committee have graciously offered up their hall to our club until we are back up and running.

New Zealand-born, Nashville-based fiddler George Jackson and Baltimore based American banjoist Brad Kolodner met years ago in a late-night jam session at the hallowed Appalachian String Band Music Festival in West Virginia and have since formed a musical bond that runs deep, across continents and through a number of recorded projects. From the moment the fiddle bow hits the strings and the fingers grasp the fretboard, George and Brad are locked in, weaving their way through ancient melodies made new again. From trance-inducing moody original tunes to classic barnburners, their show has something for serious or casual folk music fans alike. They play with a mischievous curiosity that keeps listeners on the edge of their seats wondering where they’ll go next.

This will absolutely be an incredible evening of outstanding Americana music and not to be missed!  Tickets are $20 and you can reserve your seat by emailing whangateaufolk@gmail.com.  Doors open at 7:00pm and the show starts at 7:30pm.

Leigh Hall is located at the corner of Seatoun Ave and Cumberland St. in Leigh, just 5km from Whangateau Hall.
