Having just been nominated for the 2nd year in a row for New Zealand's Best Country Album, Tami Neilson is reunited with her family to perform songs from their award-nominated 'The Kitchen Table Sessions" album. She will also be joined by special guest, New Zealand artist Lauren Thomson!
About "The Kitchen Table Sessions":
"This project was recorded on a visit back to Canada over the Christmas holidays in Jan 2009. while sitting around my brother's kitchen table, various Neilsons dropped in, playing instruments, stomping their feet, singing along to old songs, writing new ones, knitting, cooking, laughing and reminiscing. We drank vast amounts of Tim Hortons hot chocolate and feasted on my sister-in-law's southern fried chicken to keep warm and cozy while the winter snow piled up on the doorstep outside.
I love making music with my family. It used to be our way of life, what we did everyday for a living. It was just "normal"...(if normal was the Partridge Family). Now, living on the other side of the earth, it has become something special and rare and precious. So, it was fun to capture that feeling of going back in time for a little while, back to when it was no work and all play with my siblings and parents. A holiday from being a grown-up.
So, pull up a chair at our kitchen table and feel free to join in if you like!" -Tami Neilson
