Ukitopia Arts Collective's first 'Songwriters on the Songlines' for 2012 is a Young Musicians Night at Uki Holy Trinity Church.
Its an exciting moment when young artists find the confidence to start attracting an audience. Witness the talent of four of our next generation of Tweed Shire musicians as they showcase their abilities in a very special environment. Jerome Williams is supported by Poppii Gee, Indigo Collins-Cook and Kalyani. Jermome has been described by jazz musician Wayne Jones as a "unique, amazingly talented, emerging musician, one that will definitely be known worldwide.....15 year old Poppii started playing piano when she was in Year 5 but didn't become inspited to take playing seriously until the end of Year 8 when she started songwriting and performing.....Indigo is 14 and has been playing guitar since he was 8. His forte is exploring alternative guitar tunings and percussive forms of playing and composing his own songs.....15 year old Kalyani is a third-generation songwriter and she has been writing songs and poetry since early childhood. Her voice is mesmerising and melodic. Kalyani will be performing from her portfolio of songs and accompanying herself on keyboard.
Doors open at 7pm, chai and refreshments will be available during the intermission. Advance tickets are just $10 for Ukitopia members, $10 for Youths and $15 for non members from the Uki Cafe and limited to 80.
