Iconic music star Tami Neilson is joining forces with one of New Zealand’s most celebrated artists of all time, Dinah Lee to take over The Civic's stage, together with the Hot Rockin Band of Rhythm and a star-studded girl group The Up Doo’s.
From her tour bus somewhere in the US, Tami can barely contain her excitement of linking up with the legendary artist who bought the world hits including Do The Blue Beat, Don't You Know Yockomo and Reet Petite.
“I’ve been dreaming of singing with Dinah FOREVER, I’m such a fan,” says Tami.
For multi-award winning artist Tami, the October tour brings her home to New Zealand after months on the road in the States, performing at illustrious outdoor festivals and legendary venues including Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium with Crowded House. .
This follows the extraordinary 2022 release of Kingmaker which included the single Beyond the Stars, a duet with country music legend Willie Nelson.
Dinah Lee became a household name in the 60s with her hit songs Do The Blue Beat, Don’t You Know Yockomo and Reet Petite, achieving No.1 status in New Zealand and Australia and earning her the title of Entertainer of The Year.
This is a once-in-a-life-time opportunity to see the original and the latest Mod Girls together on one stage. Hold on tight, this will be an evening you won’t forget!
