Original music by Caroline Blundell • Performed
60mins
South African singer-songwriter and folk legend Caroline Blundell teams up with Brydon Bolton and James van Minnen, who will be bringing you new works from Caroline's upcoming album, some unexpected twists on traditional tales, and above all, beautiful acoustic music. A celebration of life's palate of love, tragedy and humour, this show will warm up your Thursday night from the inside out! 


Folk singer/songwriter Caroline Blundell's music comes from the heart - and from the heart of experience. Her succinct (and often humorous) lyrics, conveyed by her pure voice and accompanied by the beautiful melodies she creates with fine fingerstyle acoustic guitar, touch us with a gentle wisdom, resonating with the quintessential human adventure we all share.
