All Souls Chapel, 1 Ashton Street, Bangalow on Sunday 13 August at 3.30pm

Gyan and her partner in life, and on the stage, producer/composer, pianist and guitarist Simon (Si) Greaves, have had a little dream that grew into a little seed, and now they are thrilled to be finally playing inside the sweet little All Souls Chapel in Bangalow – after driving past it so many times over so many years.

If you haven’t been inside the venue, it was designed in the form of a cathedral. It has a high-gabled roof, covered with tiles. The walls are constructed of brick up to the windows, with painted render above, and higher still, two narrow Gothic-shaped windows.

Gyan and Si will be joined by Tara Lee Byrne on cello and Belinda MacKenzie on violin (better known as The Little Tendrils) for an intimate concert of heavenly proportions.

See this wonderful show at the All Souls Chapel, 1 Ashton Street, Bangalow on Sunday 13 August at 3.30pm. Tickets can be found on trybooking.com.
