Guests: Mimi Gilbert (matinee)
THIS SHOW IS STRICTLY 18+
Lydia Cole has been living in Berlin since the release of her 2017 album The Lay of the Land. In this time she has been performing throughout Europe and the UK, where audiences have received her with great warmth.
"In these new environments I've become reacquainted with that feeling of complete vulnerability, both on and off stage." she reflects.
On stage her new bandmate Timothy Armstrong gently adds harmony, rhythm and texture.
They return to New Zealand for a slice of summer before stopping briefly in Melbourne on the way back to Berlin.
Joining them on this southern string of shows is the captivating California-born songwriter Mimi Gilbert, who these days calls Melbourne home.
"Where other similarly inspired artists hide behind metaphors and their faults, Cole is not afraid to expose her soul and shines with restraint and sincerity on record and stage.”
