    Henare “H” Kaa presents Songs of My Garage Party – a show built on story and song, inspired by the legendary garage parties that so many of us Kiwi millennials grew up with in Aotearoa.

    Expect a unique blend of original tracks and your favorite anthems, all woven into a heartfelt narrative that takes you on a journey through love, loss, joy, trauma, and nostalgia.

    With an incredible line-up of Otautahi’s top musicians alongside H, the arrangements will hit you right in the feels – nostalgic, raw, and deeply personal.

    So, come through and relive those classic garage party vibes – sing along, let loose, and experience the magic of it all.

     

    This event is a part of our Matariki 2025 programme happening between 7 - 22 June. View the full line-up of events.
