Gin Wigmore, sings Hey Ho on Hornblower Cruises for KPRI.

It’s more than another cool concert when you have New Zealand artist, Gin Wigmore, entertain on Hornblower Cruises & Events. Gin Wigmore is to New Zealand as what Amy Winehouse was to England. Her debut album went five times platinum in her home country. While her music definitely has a Winehouse or Duffy vibe, she is completely unique in her bluesy vocals that can be described as a stiff drink that goes down smooth. Her performance for this KPRI FM sponsored event on July 18, 2010 was no different. One part cheeky, one part heartfelt and one part raw made quite the cocktail for a night that blew the doors off of most cruise events. Hey Ho is Wigmore’s third single from Holy Smoke. Some might remember the song appearing in Weed’s Season Six finale. She gave a stellar performance that drew the crowd into her world of bluesy rock and roll. As far as event spaces go, it’s hard to beat the views and musical performances on a Hornblower yacht. Plus, delicious food, Champagne and fully stocked bars get you in to the right mood for the night. Trying to match that in other San Diego event venues would be as hard as Wigmore delivering a performance that didn’t exceed expectations.
