Davis sure to deliver an engaging performance

Shenandoah Davis.

Rotorua music lovers will be in for a treat this weekend with the performance of American singer Shenandoah Davis.

Davis, from Seattle, will perform in Rotorua for the first time at St Chad's Community Hall tomorrow night.

The concert will form part of her nationwide tour and she will be joined by Auckland-based singer Anthonie Tonnon, who recently spent five weeks touring with Davis in the United States.

Event organiser Karin Vincent said audiences will get the chance to hear alternative, folk, indie-pop at its finest.

"If people like good song writing, great composition and a bit of a laugh, this would be a perfect night for them," she said.

While Davis was classically trained, touring with popular folk-musicians Laura Marling and Martha Wainwright has influenced her music.

Ms Vincent said she was thrilled to have such an esteemed musician perform in Rotorua.

"It's quite special that she's coming here.

"It should be a really entertaining show."

She said Tonnon would give an equally engaging performance, as the musician would likely play a variety of instruments, from ukulele, to electric guitar to acoustic.

"It will be a lot of fun."

Audiences would be able to bring a plate of food and their own drinks to watch the performance, she said.

Tickets are available for $10 pre sale from Eventfinder or Musicworks Rotorua or $15 for door sales on the night of the event.
