Join Ben Chavasse at Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki for Music of the month, celebrating the opening weekend of Picasso Designed by Paul Smith.
The Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland singer-songwriter will perform a one-hour set of soulful jazz numbers.
Ben’s lyric-forward songwriting draws on indie folk, with influences including Joanna Newsom, Alex G, Japanese Breakfast and Tiny Ruins, alongside elements of rock, punk and jazz. His songs explore self-discovery, mental health and relationships through an introspective and vulnerable lens.
For Ben, songwriting is a way of making sense of the communities and experiences that have shaped him. At its core, his music is about relating, empathising and connecting with others.
This free, family-friendly event offers the chance to discover a new artist or reconnect with a favourite. Seats are available on a first come, first served basis. If you need help finding the location, ask a Gallery Assistant for directions.
