International festival artist with virtuoso acoustic guitar playing. Upbeat blues-roots-rock-folk.
Ben Catley returns for his 5th tour of New Zealand, bringing his high energy live show back to The Jam Factory, Tauranga! With mesmerising acoustic guitar playing, big bluesy vocals and an ecstatic stage presence, Ben pours every ounce of his soul into his live show.
