Celebrating the Music of Nick Cave

Beyond comparison. Beyond genre. Beyond dispute.

Nick Cave pens love eulogies that’ll sink you to your knees, performs like a revivalist, croons like a drunk, weeps like a banshee, mocks like the devil. His undisputed musical genius has been drip-fed to the world over decades.

Originally devised to celebrate Cave’s 60th birthday in 2017, singer-songwriter Reb Fountain’s stunning tribute show returns by popular demand – and this time, she weaves her own Cave-esque songs into the mix. Alongside her band – including collaborator and multi-instrumentalist Dave Khan – Reb is joined by New Zealand’s premier string quartet, The Black Quartet. Together, they channel the raucous, brazen wisdom and beauty of Cave’s musical legacy.
