On Fire owner Rob Riley says he's very excited to have a consummate and professional musician like Toni down at the cafe this weekend.

'These two shows will be a couple of great gigs,” says rob. 'I can't think of a better way of saying goodbye to the working week and welcoming in the weekend.”

Toni will be joined on stage by her four piece band that includes Roy Payne on guitars, Tom Jones on upright bass and Scott Bennett drums.

Hailing from the small settlement of Nundle in New South Wales, Toni's music is a mixture of soul, blues and R&B, brought to life with an enthralling voice that soothes ever ear that hears it.

She has also performed at a number of major Australian blues festivals such as Tamworth, Maldon Folk and Thredbo Blues festivals.

Her latest album The Red Shed released in 2014 features eight track which the artist says were originally penned by ‘candlelight and wine' while Toni lived off the grid in the Tasmanian bush.

Rob says he hopes to see a good crowd down at the cafe tonight and Saturday night for what is promising to be a hell of a gig.

'Toni and her band will be bringing a stylish mix of blues, jazz, soul tunes, plus a few rockabilly jives and bossa novas.

'So don't miss these gigs from one of Australia's finest and moving vocalist.”

Toni Swain and Band will be onstage at the On Fire Cafe on Whitianga's Esplanade tonight and Saturday night, from 7.30pm. Entry is free.
