Nicky does secular gigs also..but a special kind of gig for churches has developed over the years… called a “nicky gig”… Typically what happens is a church will invite Nicky to come and do a Nicky gig. The organisers then do up their hall to look like a café; candles, mood lighting, small tables with chairs around etc. Then people from the church invite their neighbours, friends and family to come and hear a concert. The gig starts with Nicky singing songs about life and having fun with the audience. Her patter between songs is humorous, enjoyable and designed to put the listener at ease. Gradually through song and patter Nicky tells her story of how she came to be a "card carrying Jesus follower" when she was not born into a religious family. After about 35 mins there is a break for supper. People chat and enjoy coffee and food etc Then begins the second half. Nicky reconnects with the audience with some fairly outrageous blues (with audience backing vocals) and she then begins a bracket of songs which outline some events and stories from the life of Jesus . Woven through the material is the theme that God the creator is wanting us to know Him and have our universe revolve around Him. The night finishes with an encouragement to really check out more with friends who are card carrying Jesus freaks and to stay and talk and have more coffee! It is a great way to share your faith with those who are checking out spiritual stuff, yet may not want to come to church or be that interested in hearing a talk about God. The performances are very high quality entertainment. Here are some quotes from happy punters! "not for a long, long time have I heard such jargon free evangelism!" "what a special night!" Have a look at Nicky's upcoming gigs What does it Cost? Nicky usually charges $300.00-$400.00 for her gigs . She also employs a sound guy and they bring all their own gear to performances. If your church has very good sound gear and can provide someone to operate it who is very experienced then the cheaper deal can be worked out. Most churches cover costs by selling tickets. It also makes clear to people invited that this gig is of a professional standard if tickets are involved. How do I make a booking? or call her 0432 215 540.
