Hollie Smith In First NZ Theatre Tour

Hollie Smith is about to treat New Zealanders to her first ever theatre tour.

Hollie Smith’s voice stole the nation’s hearts when erupting on the scene with the now-classic Bathe in the River. Her highly anticipated debut album “Long Player” stormed into the New Zealand charts at Number 1 and rapidly achieved platinum sales status.

Hollie’s extraordinary voice and writing talents have been discovered internationally. In May this year she started working with New York based Manhattan Records, a subdivision of the famous Blue Note label. She is about to record two new songs in Philadelphia for Manhattan with acclaimed producer James Poyser (Erykah Badu, D’Angelo, The Roots, Common) and will then be touring Australia, America, UK, France and Canada.

Opening for Hollie will be the critically acclaimed SJD. SJD has received masses of five star reviews and press accolades for his live and recoded work. He has just released his fourth album Songs from a Dictaphone which features beautifully crafted intellectual pop tracks and is currently the Number One Independent New Zealand album.

With a voice so powerful and such mesmerising live shows you cannot afford to miss Hollie Smith.
