Tami Neilson at Goldie Estate on Waiheke
Award-winning country soul singer-songwriter Tami Neilson and her Hot Rockin’ Band of Rhythm are set to entertain a vineyard full of holiday making concertgoers at Goldie Estate on Dec 27th.
For more than a decade, Tami Neilson has been queen of New Zealand’s country music scene, with countless accolades and achievements to her name, including six New Zealand Best Country Album Awards, three Best Country Song Awards, the prestigious APRA Silver Scroll for excellence in songwriting and a Grammy Award nomination for her most recent record, Kingmaker.
She has also built up a loyal fan base who know they’re guaranteed one hell of a show when it comes to her live performances, and that’s certainly what’s in store for the event at Goldie Estate.
Waiheke duo Dollface are an Americana powerhouse, beloved to local audiences on the island.
In 2016, Katy Soljak and George Gardner found synergy in their songwriting and love for country/Americana music, and thus Dollface was born. Their melodic harmonies, backed by twin guitars, are a treat on any stage.
“We call it Americana,” says Soljak. “We’re a bit bluesy, country and a little bit jazzy at times, with a few harmonies and George’s blues harp thrown in.” Gardner says, “We’re excited to be opening for Tami – we’re huge fans! And Goldie is a fantastic venue for live music.”
Catch them warming up the stage for Tami on 27th December.
