Hi guys,

Sorry for the silence our home has been filled with a series of travellers/family/couch surfers and I am only just surfacing, what can I say it has been exhausting but such good fun, but to cut to it…. music. On Friday 25th February Pacific Curls are to returning to play live at Le Cafe on London Quay overlooking the wonderful Marlborough Sounds. They have been touring in Canada. Their beautiful vocals with lyrics in Te Reo Maori, Rotuman and English and their unique combination of Scottish fiddle, Taonga Puoro, ukulele, cajon, guitar, klimba and percussion have captivated audiences wherever they have gone.

With its World-ribbed sounds, precise arrangements and a catalogue of songs that link the Pacific’s primal myths to Scotland’s mysticism, Pacific Curls – one Rotuman one Maori and a Scots – make music that is both worldly and enthralling, so come along to Le Cafe and see for yourselves. You know the deal, phone 03 573 5588 to book a table. Pacific Curls are on around 8pm I think, but do check with Peter or the front of house staff.

For now,

Tika

Hi,

I hope you are all lapping up the sunshine, wide blue skies and finding some joy in your day. The months are flying by, blink and you miss them, December tomorrow – where did the year go?

Planetary shifts afoot, so whilst the planet is shifting its axis and things are changing, what better way to enjoy life than cruising to Le Cafe on Picton’s foreshore for another wonderful musical offering, this time Matt Langley 2010 Apra Award Winner supported by Caitlin Harnett on the Featherbone Tour to release Matt’s new album, Featherbones. They will be playing at 8pm on Saturday 11th December 2010, and Stuart ‘O’ Connor will be playing on 14th December 8.30pm  $10 on the door, so do give Le Cafe a ring to book your table 03 573 5588. Le Cafe also have a new seasonal menu – well worth checking out.

Okay have fun,

Tika x
