Vorn and his Prog Consort / The Margins

Wellington legend Vorn Colgan has been writing and releasing extraordinary and odd popular music from bedrooms across Aotearoa and the world since 1999, a career which was scheduled to be cut short in 2019 by a terminal cancer diagnosis. 2023 saw him release his surprisingly non-posthumous hit The Late Album, and given his demonstrated inability to die he was left with maybe the world's most wonderful problem: what to record for his 10th album?

The answer is The Aeronaut, a 60ish minute meditation on Wellington, the universe, and everything, hewn from purest regionally-sourced prog rock and presented in a single baffling and hopefully pleasant serving. The Aeronaut is currently still a work in progress; this evening offers keen punters a chance to watch Vorn and his frighteningly good band (Nick Brown - Drums; Charley Davenport - Bass, Thomas Liggett - Violin) iron out the final kinks on a future Kiwi classic. Be there so you can say you were!
