Scott Yeoman;A gig in a hut;New Zealand troubadour Monty Bevins, for more than 10 years now, has played gigs all over the country. Hundreds of them. In tiny town halls, pubs, sports clubs, cafes, in lounges and back yards, on ferries, in theatres and hotels, in breweries, ski fields, village greens, and just about every other kind of venue imaginable. But never in a hut.

Scott Yeoman;Monty Bevins in Meadow Hut;At this particular moment, high on the Pisa Range, more than a thousand metres above sea level, there are only two sources of sound. There is the fireplace and there is the man in the light. His voice is raw, stripped back. There is no static or feedback coming from a microphone or amp because there is no microphone or amp. There is no electricity. No cell phone coverage. No distractions. Just a single bulb powered by the sun, a guitar, and a man singing his first song of the night.
