A Selection of Musical Tales - Gippsland ALBUM LAUNCH 
NIQ REEFMAN trumpets like a singer, keyboards like a bass player, sings like a narrator and ukuleles like an electric guitar - his musical performance is best described by picturing "Tim Minchin, flying a trumpet through a thunderstorm”. The experience is cosy, personable, beautiful...and cheeky. 

The launch album “A selection of musical tales” is heatedly anticipated and contains elements of storytelling, jazz, folk and electronic music.

​SUPERSTITION, FOLKLORE & THE ORIGIN OF THINGS - Solo act

Why is it a piggy bank? Why not a squirrel bank? Which old wives tales are true?

These questions will all be answered in a jazz-folk speak-easy show on the origin of superstitious and fantastical stories.

​Jazz-folk fusion entertainer Niq is a full time multi-instrumentalist in demand as a soloist and in bands across Australia, spreading songs of merriment, camraderie, action and beauty. His latest trick is playing accordion and trumpet simultaneously!

SONGS OF DRINK & MERRIMENT by Niq Reefman 

The Irish pub scene pays a visit through an evening of music and banter on the topic of the big bad B word…BOOZE!

With more interaction and prizes than last time, you'd be rolling home in the morning if the bar didn't close before bedtime!
