Gathering on the Green is a fun afternoon event within a lovely vineyard setting, just north of Masterton this Saturday.

Wellington band, Rag Poets, play many of those ‘heady’ Wellington hits from the 60s and 70s eras (also covering the music of John Prine, Boz Scaggs and Neil Young), along with new material created by its musicians. The band thrives on big vocal harmonies as it continues to maintain the unique sound which has developed over the years. Audiences love the ‘timeless’ music and the stories the band shares.

Local favourite, Michael Krishnan Jones, features in the second set with acoustic guitar and his legendary versatility. Expect folky covers from the 60s through to present day; think Scott Mckenzie through to George Ezra.

Le Grá wines will be on offer, along with a selection of beers, cider and soft drinks. The Le Grá kitchen will serve its delicious platters, which can be pre-ordered when buying tickets.

In between the musical sets, there are fun games to play. Or people can sit back, and just relax and enjoy the summer afternoon in this appealing vineyard space.
