Originality, creativity and energy are not the only skills a musician needs to ply their trade; they must also always be on the hunt for new ways and places in which to present their music to varied audiences. Original songwriters, in particular, thrive and perform best with a captive audience to appreciate their songs. These were the catalysts for the Wellington Independent Music Showcase.

W.I.M.S. will feature four diverse, self-made acts, highlighting the quality, showmanship and talent we have here in Wellington: busker turned seasoned folky Graeme James, folk-country duo LOST BiRD, folk-rockers

Miles Calder & The Rumours and American roots ensemble The Frank Burkitt Band.

These crafted, hour long concerts will take place in the historic Heyday Dome Stage at BATs and will be a rare chance to see these excellent songwriters in such an intimate setting. As well as entertain and inspire, these shows will also serve to give audiences more of an insight into the hard work and day to day life of an independent musician.

Only 70 seats available each night so buy your tickets quick to avoid disappointment.
