Harvest Moon

For the third time, Wairarapa’s Americana/country music fans are in for a treat as Harvest Moon returns to the Carterton Events Centre on 22nd February 2025 at 7:30pm. After well-attended shows in the past two years, this Wellington-based band is back with their signature sound and captivating performance.

If you love the sweet, soulful tones of the pedal steel guitar, here’s your chance to experience it live. As an anchor of the Nashville sound and a cornerstone of Harvest Moon’s style, the pedal steel creates glowing riffs and bends that no other instrument can match.

Featuring six talented musicians, Harvest Moon’s two-hour show is a feast of musical mastery. Expect a dazzling array of instruments such as acoustic and electric guitars, pedal steel, ukulele, mandolin, accordion, piano, dobro, banjo, fretless bass, and more—all backed by rich vocal harmonies and a solid rhythm section.

The band’s repertoire spans beloved Americana classics from legends like Dwight Yoakam, Vince Gill, Johnny Cash, and John Prine, to bluegrass gems and even Boz Scaggs and the Beatles.

With their unique blend of visual spectacle, humour, and timeless songs, it’s no wonder Harvest Moon has built a loyal following across the Wairarapa region. Don’t miss this opportunity to join the celebration and see why they’re a favourite for local music lovers.
