  • When a musician more used to rock concerts and red carpets travels to Antarctica, you get a performance with an exceptional level of intimacy. Enjoy this powerful and personal performance from the extraordinary Gin Wigmore.
    Gin Wigmore is a New Zealand born singer-songwriter known for her emotional, intelligent, pop-rock style. Gin's big break in the music industry came when she became the youngest and first unsigned artist to win the Grand Prize in the US-based International Songwriting Competition in 2004. Besting 11,000 entries from 77 countries to take home the Grand Prize brought her a record deal with Universal Australia, and she has since gone on to release three full-length albums - Holy Smoke (2009), Gravel & Wine (2011), and Blood to Bone (2015) - all of which have topped the New Zealand Albums Chart.
    The distinctiveness of Gin's voice and her captivating songwriting (with influences ranging from Neil Young, David Gray and Jeff Buckley through Edith Piaf and de la Soul) have won her international acclaim. Additionally, in recent years Gin's music has been featured in such major television programs as Grey's Anatomy and ABC's Revenge, and in major television ads such as a James Bond Skyfall

    I love how she can twist and turn her own songs into a bit different styles any time she feels like and it has a new meaning every time. This is what a true musician, a true artist does. She's just amazing in every way possible.

    This younger generation of performers gives me some hope! Somehow, they know how to sing again and they care about the Earth! John Denver would be happy about this. The audience seemed stiff. Well that's what cell phones do. When they don't work in Antarctica the audience can't watch Gin through their phones. So they sit there like zombies while such a talented musicians play original music. If I were thirty years younger I would have let the lost cities stay buried a little longer rigged my AN32 for arctic flight and went South to watch Gin play. Back in the Seventies we put a higher value on nature, love, poetry, literature and beauty. Gin reminds me of that time.
