Earthquake Victims Fundraiser at Sutherland Acoustic
Thurs 7th April, 2011
Posted Saturday, January 1, 2011
Sutherland Acoustic presents a special concert in aid of the earthquake victims in Christchurch a cause which is of course dear to my heart being an ex Kiwi.
We are lucky enough to have two brilliant soul singers in Trude Aspeling and Sonia Bennett - two wonderful voices who sing directly from the heart covering a broad range of styles - blues, jazz, gospel, soul, traditional, original. They will be performing separately and are definitely worth coming out for but not only will you enjoy a great concert but you will be helping our Kiwi coussies who are doing it tough.
Please come it is going to be a joyful uplifting night and I hope to get a few Kiwis (Maoris too) to perform to give it that mana which is Maori for spirit.
