Join us for a very special dinner + show with contemporary folk/alt-country duo, We Mavericks.
Masters in the art of connection, real-life troubadours Victoria Vigenser (NZ) and Lindsay Martin (AU) interweave soulful vocals, effortless strings and driving rhythms to form a singular musical voice. Their sound has been called contemp-folk, alt-country and acoustic-pop, but no words capture their unbelievable musical kinship, or the deeply heartfelt way they relate to their audiences.
Vigenser’s penchant for turning cliches into meaningful metaphors combines beautifully with Martin’s extraordinary ability to pull a swathe of emotions out of one set of strings. With rave reviews across the UK, Europe, Australia and NZ it’s no wonder they are becoming international festival favourites.
Having already amassed a multitude of accolades including nominations as Best Folk Artist in both the Aotearoa/NZ Music Awards and the Australian Folk Music Awards, they are currently touring new album “Heart of Silver” to wide acclaim.
