In conjunction with the release of her new album, award winning artist Tami Neilson and her band, present three very special concerts in October.
Tami performs a collection of her favourites from Willie Nelson’s Songbook and shares stories of working with the man himself. She will also include a selection of her own classics creating a truly magical evening for fans of Tami and Willie Nelson.
“When I met Willie for the first time, we hugged hello, then wandered over to his living room and sat- me on the couch with my guitar, him on a chair across from me holding Trigger- and rehearsed our duet “Beyond the Stars”, which we’d recorded together remotely during the pandemic. I gratefully gulped back the glass of water his wife Annie handed me and tried to still my trembling hands, hearing our voices join together for the first time in the same room. It was one of the most magical moments of my life.”
