THE IDEA OF NORTH
The Idea of North has always been renowned for its exceptional ability to connect musically and emotionally with an audience. They take songs people know and songs they don't and tell the stories through their enviably imaginative and arresting vocal arrangements - all without touching an instrument. The Idea of North is in its most exciting iteration to date with the addition of the incredible vocal percussionist Kai Kitamura. The performance will be at 7pm on Thursday, April 4 at Armidale Town hall. Tickets $25-$45 available through www.trybooking.com
