Our guest curating the Mixtape is multi award-winning songwriter Holly Arrowsmith.
Born in the Santa Fe desert, New Mexico, and then raised in the mountains of southern New Zealand, Holly Arrowsmith’s Americana-tinged folk & country sound has been awarded APRA's 'Best country song' award twice. Her latest album Blue Dreams has been critically acclaimed.
Holly is both poet and storyteller. She has performed alongside Sixto Rodriguez, C.W Stoneking, Tami Neilson, Jessica Pratt, Nadia Reid, Marlon Williams and Tiny Ruins.
She is in Auckland this weekend for the Auckland Folk Festival and will play The Great Hall in Ōtautahi (a beautiful historic venue in the Arts Centre). Tickets on sale here.
