Music News - Fairfield House to host acclaimed NZ singer-songwriters for launch of new single
11 April 2019 - 0 Comments
Jacquie Walters and James Wilkinson will launch Jacquie’s new single Spaces Between Words at Fairfield House at a special concert on Sunday, 28 April.
James and Jacquie have shared bills in various band iterations over the past 26 years and have been busy collaborating and performing together during the past 18 months.
Following the successful release of Jacquie’s album Light For A Broken World featuring James last year, the duo have recently returned to Bob Bickerton’s Nelson studio to record new material set for release as an EP later this year. The first single from that EP will be released at the Fairfield House concert.
Jacquie is known for her stunning vocals and moving, topical song writing. James is one of New Zealand’s best guitarists and a mesmerising bass player and will be adding his unique playing style and vocals in support of Jacquie’s original material.
James and Jacquie have been impressing audiences around New Zealand at their recent concert with one reviewer writing:
“Jacquie and James are each exceptional musicians. Jacquie has always been an excellent singer, songwriter and is a very accomplished guitarist. Tonight, she was on fire! Looking fabulous and with a new found power and depth in her voice that we have not heard before. This is a seismic shift that opens up a whole new world of singing and songs for Jacquie and we can’t wait to see where it all goes. Wow!
“James has an array of amazing skills with guitar and bass that really lift song arrangements to a whole new place too. It is an entertainment of itself to watch him play, particularly because his passion for the music is written all over him as he loses himself in each song. James is an extraordinarily inventive and truly individual musician.
“Jacquie and James have developed a great stage rapport and a humour between them that is fun and relaxed.”
This will be the last opportunity to hear the duo in concert prior to the summer of 2019-2020.
