For more than a decade, Heather Waters has been touring, writing, and creating a definite style and sound to her work. Her songs and performances burn with energy! Alone, or with a band, Waters’ expressive guitar rhythms, honest lyrics, and passionate energy draw you into her performances.

8pm: Leigh Goddard

Leigh Goddard is a songwriter across multiple genres of music from cinematic to hip hop. After spending years working behind the scenes on events, and as an agent for bands nationally, she picked up the guitar for herself at the age of 25 and began her writing journey. Having had the privilege of being surrounded and inspired by some of the country’s greatest songwriters and performers of the last 3 decades. The daughter of iconic drummer, Don Robertson (The Square Set, and Gene Rockwell and The Falcons), and sister to Michael Goddard (Perez and Silent Generator), it becomes apparent through her song-writing that rhythm is hereditary, and observation is a great teacher. Leigh describes her music as “country rap cabaret”. She is joined by lifetime friend and mentor, Roly Struckmeyer, on bass.

7pm: Josh Strydom

Josh Strydom is a local acoustic guitarist from Howick who has played with many local bands, including Now a Daze, and singers, like Kaiti Faul. He has been involved in the music scene for years and has even played at White Mountain Music Festival. Josh will be playing some of his favourite songs, and although not a professional musician, he plays for the love of it and to share the fun with as much energy as possible. There are sure to be some recognisable favourites, and perhaps one or two that you may not know.
