Hopetoun Brown and the genius of Finn Scholes set sail for an ambitious tour of the Hauraki Gulf Islands aboard a wooden double-ended ketch!
Leigh Sawmill represents the North Island stop and locals will marvel and point as Ponsonby’s finest brass players row ashore in a tiny dinghy brimmed full of tubas, trombones, saxophones and a giant clarinet.
Dance the night away as this hot-forged trio parp and stomp into the warm summer evening. Sing along as Finn fires up the Leigh Sawmill grand piano while Tim and Nick go blue in the face blowing into their antique wind instruments!
We’re looking forward to this one!!

ARO are a husband & wife soul-pop duo who are travelling the country sharing their stories in song. Having just completed a campground tour they are now bringing the vibes to Leigh Sawmill.
Harking to the incisive alt-pop of St. Vincent, the plaintive 60s-influenced melodies of Harry Nilsson, and the inventive vocal work of Kate Bush, The LOW LOW brings a buoyant, off-kilter approach to classic pop.
