Rufous Whistler returns to Aotearoa! Fresh from a huge 2025 – a 60-show album tour, a debut album National Panic that hit #2 on the ARIA Country Charts, ABC Country’s Feature Album of the Week, and international airplay to boot – Rufous Whistler brings their electrifying alt-country folk to Fairfield House. Winners of the 2025 Tussock Country Festival virtuoso Busking Competition, the band is back for one special Nelson show as part of a 5-date NZ run.

Fairfield Bar and Kitchen will be operating.
