New Lazy Sundays venue a hit

10 January 2011

Over a thousand people turned out for a very relaxed and sunny start to The Breeze Lazy Sundays events at the new Archery Lawn location in the Botanic Gardens yesterday.

Christchurch City Council Events Production Manager Mark Hadlow says Mark Vanilua and his band played a great mix of original songs and covers.
“There were people everywhere – in the shade, in the sun, behind the stage and right to the back of the lawn. The event was made even more special as not a single bit of rubbish was left behind, so thanks to everyone who came,” he says.

Highly regarded singer-songwriter and recording artist Amiria is playing this Sunday at 4pm. She recently recorded her third album to be released this summer, which includes country legend John Grenell, as well as other well-known musicians.
Hadlow says, “her sunny and soulful voice with accompanying rhythmic guitar playing will be the perfect match for the brilliant day Met Service is forecasting for this coming Sunday – it will be an afternoon not to be missed.”
The free live music runs from 4pm to 5:30pm every Sunday from 9 January to 6 March, except for 23 and 30 January due to the World Buskers Festival. For more information on The Breeze Lazy Sundays or other upcoming events visit www.summertimes.co.nz or www.bethere.co.nz.
