Victoria Girling-Butcher (from Lucid 3) MATaR Charlotte Johansen
Temple Thursday May 22 8pm
If you want to see some great, unique acoustic performances come long to this great lineup of musicians this special NZ
Music Month event.
Victoria Girling-Butcher has been writing, performing and recording music throughout New Zealand for the last six years.
After completing a diploma at the School of Music in Nelson she concentrated on performances in Dunedin and Wellington
before moving to Auckland. Although she had classical voice training, her song-writing experience has lead her to
develop her own unique singing style. If her guitar playing is unconventional it's largely because she's self-taught and
enjoys experimenting with alternative tunings.
Victoria's also interested in unconventional ( there's that word again) use of language. Not many people "run down the
keys in denim jeans " !
At varsity she was drawn to studies in English, Literature and Anthropology which all makes perfect sense given that she
describes herself above all as an avid people-watcher and question-asker. More at www.lucid3.com
