    Category: Music / Gigs LIVE & LOCAL at the Old School - February


    February 9, 2024

    Friday February 9 at Raglan Old School Arts Centre, 5 Stewart Street, Raglan. Upstairs in Whare Tapere.

    Koha entry. Doors open at 7pm with Live & Local starting at 7.30pm. Bar open.

    Live & Local is back after a summer break. Kicking off the year we have singer-songwriter Joe Wilson, Penni Feather with Nicky Keys, and The Blukes.

    Joe Wilson is a singer-songwriter who spent five years busking across New Zealand, Australia and the UK and has now been in Raglan for nine years. His relatable lyrics and heartfelt lyrics are embedded within sweet melodies that give a timeless and nostalgic feel to the songs.

    Singer Penni Feather and keyboardist extraordinaire Nicky Keys will showcase more of their recent collaboration. Having taken a few songs out for a ‘training run’ at the last Live & Local in December, they’re back to road-test more of the material for their forthcoming cabaret show.

    The Blukes - Six guys got together, each with a song of his choice. With their ages ranging from 40 to 75, the songs cover a wide variety of genres and decades. You will be surprised at what these blokes can play on ukes!

    If you’re interested in performing at one of these shows, contact penni@raglanartscentre.co.nz

    Live & Local presented by Raglan Old School Arts Centre is made possible with the support of Waikato District Creative Communities, Raglan Light & Sound and Mark Frost (Bayleys Real Estate)

    Producing Films: What I’ve Learnt So Far - with Matt Hicks

    Bookings essential! Saturday 10 February | 9.30am – 2.30pm | $5 | Lunch provided

    Note: This is a two-part workshop. Come along for either the morning or afternoon workshop or both.

    Matt Hicks is a Waikato-based writer/producer/director/actor best known as the Producer of Waikato indie feature ‘Home Kills’ (which premiered at the 2023 NZIFF) and the forthcoming indie feature ‘The Tavern’ (in post-production). Matt's workshop details the highs and lows he’s experienced making low-budget features in an honest, warts-and-all fashion. In the workshop we will cover pre-production (writing/pitching to cast/crew/investors), production and post production. Participants will be encouraged to pitch their film ideas which we will workshop into pitch-ready concepts.
