Fri 31st July & Sat 1st Aug
Kicking off a new era of touring, Mel Parsons brings us an intimate evening of mid-winter entertainment at Cassels Blue Smoke in Ōtautahi / Christchurch.
Needing little introduction, the 2020 VNZMA Best Folk Artist will be playing songs from her critically acclaimed back catalogue in a two-night run of special seated shows. Along with the old faves, be the first to hear the seeds of songs for Parsons' yet-to-be recorded new album, and revel in a sitting down listening experience that we’ve all been missing these past few months.
Parsons says "I love seated shows - everything about them. No craning your neck to see or getting a sore back three songs in. I'm a huge fan of sit down shows, it helps me listen. I love to perform for seated audiences too - I always want my audience to be comfortable, and seated shows have the added bonus of somehow being that little bit more silly and fun.”
In addition to your show seat, there is limited table seating available for pre-show dinner in the Cassel’s Blue Smoke Back Bar & Diner. The show will be in two halves with an intermission, run times as follows:
6:30pm Pre-show dinner service (bookings essential)
8pm Show start
