Event Duration: 240 minutes

Winternationale bring their experimental tropes and folk song stylings to the Bella Union as part of an amazing Saturday night bill that subverts, explores and traverses the simple definitions of musical genre. Joining them will be Cuba is Japan - an experimental three piece who meld brooding instrumentals with folk tales based on and inspired by the spirit and tragic misadventures of the failed Franklin Arctic expedition.

Presented also will be the detailed and richly textural guitar evocations of NZ ex-pat Seth Rees (The Spheres, Amplifier Machine, TIYCS) as well as Genevieve & Jezebel - a new folk ensemble with a difference who artfully create soundscapes and songsusing an inventory of instruments including classical harp, cello, bells, tuned percussion, drums and singing glasses!

Doors to this fine eve of musical treats open at 8pm and entry is a mere $8. Indeed a night at Bella Union not to be missed!
