...The five played with enormous energy, consummate delicacy, with an intuitive collaboration and infectious passion that captured both the quintet’s fire and its tragic beauty. It brought a tear to the eye....

Aroha Quartet to play on Living Wage Stage, Newtown Fair, Wellington, 6 March
Wednesday, February 17, 2016 - 3:46pm

17 February 2016 - We're really happy to be able to play on the Living Wage Stage at the Newtown Fair on Sunday 6 March. We're members of Aotearoa Artists for the Living Wage and big supporters of the Living Wage Movement.

The Newtown Fair is always a great day out for the 80,000 or so people who come along, and it's an ideal chance to get the Living Wage message across. New Zealanders deserve to get a wage that allows them live with dignity and play a full part in society.

Come along and listen to the acts on the Living Wage Stage. We're playing from 2:10-2:40, but there are wonderful musicians and poets performing all day from 10-4.

See you there!
