July Calendar
As you probably know by now, our space at the Nix is Auckland's home of Bluegrass. The Auckland Bluegrass Club meets at the Nix on the second Wednesday of every month, with an associated Old-Time Session on the fourth Wednesday. This month they're showcasing family-jam-band Dusty Lands, an acoustic folk quartet from Whangārei that promise a blend of American folk with a 'unique Northland campfire style'. Expect luscious harmonies, soulful songwriting, banjos, mandolins and resonators. Dusty Lands will perform in the second half, with the first half featuring turns by regular members of the ABC. Tickets are $15 at the door. All are welcome.

This Saturday, Somervell Presbyterian will be the saxiest church in the city. Ockham Collective luminary Hanna Wiskari will be one of eight saxophonists blowing up a storm for Saxophone Voices: Echoes of the World. Tickets are available through humanitix.

If you're looking for a special treat for the kids this school holidays, Ockham Collectivists - past and present - have got the goods. First up, Talia Pua is one of the puppeteers involved in Silo Theatre's production Taniwha, which is playing at the Herald Theatre right now. Meantime, down in Wellington, Tom Knowles is bringing his new show with partner-in-chaos Jed Parsons (aka Jeff Parsnips) to Circa Theatre. All The Things I Wish I Could Be runs from 1 July until 12 July.
