Ben Tolich aka Mali Mali.
Ben Tolich aka Mali Mali is a quirky musician who "pushes the experimental grid to suit his inquisitive nature", according to Rogue Lounge creator Karin Vincent.
The Auckland-based singer songwriter is performing tomorrow night at the Rogue Lounge.
"He ditched a recording engineer for his album As a Dog Dreams,
recording it in his basement. He knew nothing about home recording and learnt as he went," Ms Vincent said.
She said the result was a fine album. He backed that up with a second album, which was chosen by Simon Sweet to be in his top five albums for June 2016.
Opening the stage for him is poet David Merritt.
