Heads Up! Big up Lisa Preston aka LP and Bluevibe Studio for sorting this one out, should be great doco and night...
"Bluevibe Collective (based out of Auckland) have secured the rights to
screen the wonderfully intimate documentary about Bill Withers - "Still
Bill". Many thanks go out also to Radio Active for their support of this
event.
You know the music, now meet the man..... Still Bill is an intimate portrait
of soul legend Bill Withers, best known for his classics "Ain't no
sunshine", "Lean on me", "Lovely day", "Grandma's hands" (to name but a few
of the gifts he has given us over the years...). With his soulful delivery
and warm, heartfelt sincerity, Withers has written the songs that have and
always will - resonate deeply within the fabric of our times.
Filmmakers Damani Baker and Alex Vlack follow Withers and offer a unique and
rare look inside the world of this fascinating man. Through concert
footage, journeys to his birthplace, interviews with music legends, his
family and closest friends, STILL BILL presents the story of an artist who
has written some of the most beloved songs in our time and who truly
understands the heart and soul of a man.
Tickets are $15.00 plus booking fee and are available direct from Paramount
Theatre from Friday 15th January or can be purchased online through:

night thanks to Radio Active's Soul Affair DJs and special guests. Doors
open at 7.30pm so come along for a drink and a listen before the screening,
and enjoy the party that will prevail after !
Looking forward to catching up with you all there,
