Lindsey Shields is a singer and songwriter with her own take on things personal and political, including well-crafted lyrics on topics as diverse as real estate, Harrison Ford and the menopause. She is active in the Dunedin music scene, currently performing with Folkalyptica and the Irish band Erin St. Festival appearances include the Australian National Folk festival, the Vancouver Island Music Fest, and Auckland Folk Festival. She has also toured New Zealand twice and performed in house concerts and folk gatherings in the UK.

 

 

With her clear voice, great feeling, and delicacy Heather Innes will take you through the gamut of emotions from powerful ballads to gentle lullabies in a performance tinged with timely humour. She had toured numerous countries singing in folk clubs and pubs with various groups and in her a cappella duo Caim has even performed twice for the Dalai Llama in Northern Ireland.

WilkieMac, Lynne Wilkins and Michael Mackinnon, are based in Raglan. They have recently completed several recording projects and are looking forward to sharing songs from: ‘The Guinea Stamp’, a collection inspired by Robert Burns; ‘The Pleasure Will Be Mine’, a collection of favourite celtic and local folk songs; and ‘When the West Wind Blows’, a collection of Lynne’s songs and tunes.
