New Zealand’s newest pop princess, VENICE today announces a one-off show at The Civic in Auckland on Friday, 27
September.
The energetic 18-year-old singer-songwriter, who’s captured the attention of Lady Gaga and P!NK’s sound and recording
wizards, will showcase her signature style of acoustic and synth-pop mixed with resolute rock, soft, humming vocals and
a towering, operatic voice. This will be an unforgettable debut performance not to be missed!
“At 18 years old, Venice has a maturity and work ethic that draws parallels to many of the world’s top artists I have
worked with over the last 20 years,” says Ratu Gordon, who has served as head sound engineer for Lady Gaga’s Enigma Concerts at the Park Theatre in Las Vegas.
Ratu produced Venice’s latest MTV-type recording and video for I Know Him, I love Him which will be released in time for the concert. He will be production manager for her performance at The Civic.
Her sound and song composition is bright and full, which reflects her personality. Venice’s music is a breath of Fresh
air in an over saturated marketplace.
With more than a hint of musical theatre running through her songs, this talented vocalist explores the depths of her
emotions with refreshing energy and a cathartic light touch.
If you love music with the power to move you, then you will love Venice!
