Great Southern Nights presents Ngaiire at Warners Bay Theatre.
Hailing from the Eastern Highlands and New Ireland provinces of Papua New Guinea, Ngaiire’s sound melds electronic neo-soul, gospel, and big pop sounds, strained through the lens of a First Nations Papua New Guinean songwriter. Her musical career crosses genres, mediums and expectations.
Described by Rolling Stone as “a near perfect slice of hushed future soul, the muted synths cushioning Ngaiire’s endlessly expressive vocal performance”, Ngaiire-pronounced nigh-ree (rhymes with diary), has an innovative approach that has garnered her four ARIA award nominations including Artist of the Year, four National Live Music Awards, three FBi Radio SMAC Awards, and the inaugural Australian Women in Music Award for Artistic Excellence.
NGAIIRE is supported by local artist Ena Malibu.
NGAIIRE is supported by the NSW Government through Create NSW and Great Southern Nights.
