From New Zealand, now living here.
A great performer of funny and poignant songs with a comic twist and off beat slant.. An old hippy, she is described as "wonky, eccentric" and " a wholefood freak".
"I?ve been writing songs now for about 45 years. I don?t write the same kinds of songs all of the time because I get bored with that. So my material is a mixture of the wistful, poignant, outrageous, satirical and obnoxious. When I perform I like to take the audience on a journey where they might be laughing one minute and crying the next. All of the songs have short and unusual introductions in which I reveal a lot of personal information, some of which may not be true. I?ve had a lot of fun doing this act over the years and my favourite gigs are in the backrooms of pubs to an audience of seven."
Rosslyn Court stands as a vital cultural anchor within Cliftonville, a district increasingly recognised for its artistic vibrancy. It functions as an intimate acoustic music venue, drawing both local audiences and those from further afield, establishing itself as a key destination for live performance in Kent.
The interior cultivates a warm, inviting atmosphere, where the soft glow of ambient lighting complements the rich, resonant acoustics of the performance space. Thoughtfully arranged seating encourages a focused listening experience, while the subtle scent of freshly brewed coffee often permeates the air, adding to the homely feel.
Beyond the main performance area, the venue offers a pleasant garden space for quieter moments. The entire ground floor is accessible, including dedicated facilities, ensuring ease of movement for all patrons. A small bar provides a selection of hot and cold beverages, alongside cakes, enhancing the comfort of an evening's attendance.
The programming at Rosslyn Court spans a broad spectrum of acoustic music, from traditional folk and Americana to contemporary indie and jazz. Regular open mic sessions, classical evenings, and sea shanty gatherings also feature, providing a platform for both established artists and emerging local talent.
