In preparation for the release of their debut album, Downriver will be performing at Nelson’s most beloved heritage venue this December. Expect to be carried from calm to chaos amid friends, leafy trees, and summer skies.
Enjoy a night of timeless tunes, grab a drink, bring a friend, sway to the music, and let the melodies carry you away.
SUPPORT FROM REYNE AND DJ SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION
More:
Downriver:
Downriver is a 6-piece folk group based in Nelson, New Zealand. Their music ranges from the heartfelt homeland balladry of 70s singer-songwriters to the existential melancholy of 90s alternative. Featuring original songs, rich vocal harmonies, and lush acoustic arrangements, Downriver offers a warm, reflective listening experience.
Reyne:
.:. reyne is the pseudo-eponymous folk project of Wellington musician Reyne Drop. With releases focusing on the self, sensitivity to the world around, and ideas about our past, present, and future, there is a deep connection to be found to his music by any listener. As a self producing musician he has a signature sound, one with a mischievous personality and a tendency to subvert expectations. You’ll find yourself discovering a complex world within each song, one which seems nostalgically familiar, yet somehow alien at the same time.
DJ Spontaneous Combustion:
DJ Spontaneous Combustion will bring the heat playing some firey delights to keep the vibes hot. Expect an eclectic mix of jazz, soul and electronica with live dubs and chops throughout.
