Award-winning musicians a match for award-winning wines

This year the musical line-up is as tasty as the wine and food at the centre of the festival. All acts have been hand-picked to create the great atmosphere the Marlborough Wine & Food Festival is famous for. You can chill or dance to main stage performances, groove to classic tunes curated by DJ collective Vinyl in the Vines and, for something completely different, why not get a bird’s eye view of all the fun on a joy ride with Precision Helicopters NZ?

Jocee Tuck

Endearingly quirky indie singer-songwriter Jocee Tuck plays the vibraphone – a giant glockenspiel with a built-in sustain pedal to create her whimsical signature sound.

Vagus Plum

This upbeat funk roots duo have mastered a stripped-down sound using only drums and acoustic guitar. Don’t be tricked by the simplicity however – this band brings the energy.

Niko Walters

Rising star Niko Walters has a musical pedigree and is enjoying his time in the spotlight. He’s the brother of SIX60 frontman Matiu Walters but has cultivated a sound all his own, fusing elements of soul, hip-hop, and pop with his unique vocals.

Broods DJ Set

Indie-pop siblings and 10-time NZ music-award-winners, Broods will join as a DJ set, drawing from their popular albums we all know and love.

Coterie

The four brothers spearheading this five-piece band, with iwi affiliations to Te Aupo¯uri, Nga¯puhi and Nga¯i Te Rangi, are rapidly building a reputation as one of the most electrifying live acts on both sides of the Tasman.

Sweet Mix Kids

DJ/production duo Sweet Mix Kids have performed at Coachella, Rhythm & Vines, Melbourne Cup Carnival and some of the coolest parties possible, for the likes of Adele, Ed Sheeran, Flume and Netsky.
