The Levin Folk Music Club meets again Friday 11 October with special guest Wandrella.

Wandrella play a mix of clever "covers with a twist" and original songs which reflect their classical roots and eclectic musical influences.

After a chance meeting in December 2016 at a house concert in Levin, Gill Allen (keyboards & guitar) and Kate Ward (guitar, banjo and mandolin) began to create a blend of their music and vocals, to develop a style and synergy unique to Wandrella. Both being Contralto, allows either voice to cover the musical range with an interchangeable blend of vocal harmonies.

Kate has played solo Celtic and classical guitar and has opened for the Arizona Smoke Review in the UK and Paul Obana Jones in NZ. She was influenced by the finger picking styles of Stefan Grossman and Gordon Giltrap.

Gill recorded her first album “Colour Outside the Lines” in 2004. She has played and recorded several songs with local musician Kevin Watson and in 2016 teamed up with local musician Simon Burgess and formed the duo “Burgess and Allen”. Two main musical influences have been Elton John and Eva Cassidy.

Wandrella, has gone from strength to strength over the years since they began. Their harmonies are so beautiful and make your heart sing and your face smile.

Come and find out for yourself at: Levin Folk Music Club, Friday October 11th at the Horowhenua Scottish Society Hall, 155 Bartholomew Road, corner Bartholomew Road and Middlesex Street, Levin.

Doors open at 7:00 pm and the evening begins at 7:30 pm with a blackboard of performers, where there is an opportunity for musicians to put their name up for an item. The guests perform after supper and the drawing of the raffle.

Admission, which includes a light supper, is $7 for members, $12 for non-members and $3 for students. Cash only (no eftpos facilities).
