Bluestockings in Kloof will present A Songwriter's Odyssey featuring Fiona
Tozer and Ant Cawthorn-Blazeby tomorrow night.
Experience the music from a songwriter's
perspective. Join singer-songwriter Fiona Tozer in an evening of music and
exploration, an odyssey through the experience of the songwriting process,
reflecting on her motivation, musical development and use of techniques, and
playing some of her songs as examples. She will be accompanied on the journey
by friend and legendary fiddler Anton Cawthorn-Blazeby.
Fiona Tozer started her musical career as a
self-taught singer and guitarist. She has travelled widely, performing with
musicians from all over the world and developing a unique personal style of
songwriting. Her songs vary from contemporary folk melodies for solo voice and
guitar, to arrangements for acoustic rock bands and other ensembles. Recent
formal music studies have expanded her composing abilities across genres and
earned her a masters degree in composition. For further details, visit her
