Holly Arrowsmith announces her NZ tour in support of her new album, A Dawn I Remember. The sophomore album is already gaining critical acclaim, alongside an APRA Silver Scroll Top 20 nod for closing album track, ‘Slow Train Creek’.
A Dawn I Remember promises to translate in superior fashion with Holly’s hand selected run of venues and accompaniment including fellow Tui Award winner for Best Folk Album, Amira Grenell for the South Island dates and special guests to be announced for the North Island.

“That Arrowsmith has come back so strong with this often remarkable collection is testament to her emotional resilience as much as to her rigorous songwriting, here a huge step up.” – Graham Reid – Elsewhere.co.nz
“this music resonates long after the final track has been played.
Here’s hoping that Holly Arrowsmith’s A Dawn to Remember is just the beginning of a long journey” – Five Stars – Tony Nielsen – Otago Daily Times, NZME Regional Papers
“This is by far Holly Arrowsmith’s best work to date. She has crafted an evocative ’big sky’ album that acknowledges and honours its influences without wasting too much time being reverential. It is music that draws you back for another listen and offers fresh reward every time.'” – Trevor Faville Muzic.net.nz
