With Special Guest Robbie Hart
Emerging singer/songwriter Rune Alith offers up heart opening songs, inviting listeners to delve into their own deep felt emotions.

A cross pollination of Contemporary-Melancholy-Folk-Pop and Indie textures encapsulate the general feel for her suite of original music. Understated piano arrangements accompany her honest, expressive voice.

Rune’s performances of the past 3 years have gained a reputation for their transformative approaches to unique and unexpected settings. A variety of buildings including a church, an old cinema, small retail boutiques and an office warehouse have been host to artfully curated, intimate sold out shows. This performance however, is the moment we have all been waiting for! It will fulfil a three year dream of Rune’s to perform on the Far South Coast’s very own Windsong Pavilion. ‘Ever since I stepped foot in the beautiful and captivating Four Winds Windsong Pavilion I knew one day I wanted to perform there’ RA. Last year Rune was supported by Four Winds to undergo a weekend residency in the dreamy acoustic setting of the Windsong Pavilion. During this time she recorded a selection of songs with William Adams of Far South Audio and Recording. William skilfully and intuitively captured the songs that make up her debut EP – HOME. The themes and storytelling elements are tied closely to her experience of growing up on the Far South Coast and since unexpectedly returning to live after travelling, studying and living abroad. Melbourne, London, Sydney and the Northern Rivers have all been influential places of home to her. Four Winds Windsong Pavilion is a state of the art facility designed by architect Clinton Murray and is an acoustically pristine performance space. This magical rich setting feels completely fitting to mark this milestone in her early career as an emerging Australian Woman in Music.

This performance will celebrate and bookend an emotional body of work and acknowledge the official launch of her anticipated debut EP – HOME. Over the previous three years Rune has collaborated and performed alongside Max Garner Tucker (Trombone) Elizabeth Andalis (Violin), Chris Costello (Keys), Cale Phelps (Guitar) and Anatoli Torjinski (Cello), her most recent collaboration is with Robbie Hart who plays crystal sounds bowls who will feature in parts of the performance – an unexpected and truely unique rich soundscape can be expected by this transformative set of instuments.

The fruits of Rune’s musical labour reflect her varied life circumstances and perspectives on the human experience. Enriched by her visceral and poignant storytelling approach. Rune hopes the tapestry of her songwriting can speak to the listeners own life experiences. This show will be curated to inspire an epic chronological journey. You can expect a little storytelling between the heart wrenching lyrical narratives of songs.

Previous intimate shows have been noted by audience members as ‘The most raw and moving performance I have been blessed to watch’ and ‘Piercing my heart, so warm, endearing and heartfelt’.

In June Rune released her debut film clip ‘Black Is The Colour‘ Filmed and Edited by Tyge Landa. Examples of her work can be found on Spotify, Apple music and many of the usual contemporary haunts. Rune Alith’s recent original single release ‘Somewhere Nowhere‘ and recorded live cover version of ‘Strange Fruit‘ originally performed by Billy Holiday and Nina Simone has struck an emotional chord with listeners.
