About
Pam Hata is an R&B singer for hire in Brushgrove, NSW.
Pam Hata plays solo acoustic out of the Northern Rivers, blending R&B, soul, folk and pop into a set that gets toes tapping and hands clapping. Her Maori culture and her love of the country she plays in both sit openly in the show, so there's storytelling and banter between the songs rather than dead air. Covers stretch from Ain't No Sunshine and Stand By Me to Billie Jean, Sweet Dreams, Black Hole Sun and Bad Guy, with originals worked in alongside. Her own material is part of the show, not an afterthought. She also performs as a duo, and with a full band for festivals playing original music. Setup is simple: one vocal, one guitar.
Watch
The show
Pam sings, plays and talks. Original songs sit next to the covers, and between them come stories and banter drawn from her culture, so the set has a thread running through it instead of just a song list. The audience gets brought along rather than played at.
Performance options
Pam comes in three formats. Solo, which is a covers show. As a duo, mixing originals with covers. Or with a full band, which is the festival format and leans on her original music.
