    • Songs at Vogelmorn with Ali Whitton & Just Janie | Vogelmorn Upstairs
      • Bar open: 3:00pm | Doors open: 7:00pm | Gig starts: 7:30pm Koha Entry! Come along and enjoy an intimate evening of story and song. Pōneke songwriter Ali Whitton will be joined by Ōtautahi-based Just Janie, both showcasing songs from their newly released albums. Born and raised in Central Otago, Janie grew up writing songs tucked beneath the Hawkdun Ranges. Steeped in the golden warmth of the sixties and seventies, Just Janie’s music is a captivating and tender menagerie. With her debut studio album coming in May; ‘Mythology of the Girls’, Just Janie is entering a new era. A reaction to nostalgia through a modern lens, the album pays homage to the folk scene of the late sixties and early seventies. Ali's music blends folk, alt-country and bluegrass into a warm, woody sound centered on intimate storytelling. His debut album 'Between the Forest and the Stars' distils Ali’s years into richly layered arrangements produced by Dave Khan and co-produced with Reb Fountain, featuring fiddle, harmonies and locomotive rhythms.
