Pam Hata, the creator of the Original Sound Lounge, has worked tirelessly to create a music community of musicians for musicians, where the folk of the mid north coast, and especially those in Port Macquarie, can come along and experience live music, performed by local performers & touring musicians.

Pam has had some terrific help from Elke Rautenberg from Mid North Coast Social. 

The Original Sound Lounge crew love to support the local venues that support live music.

One such venue is Port Mac’s very own Botanic Wine Garden – a place for sophisticated dining in a relaxed environment and a carefully curated wine list. 

Since 2017, on Wednesday nights, you will have found the OSL crew at Botanic Wine Garden, where patrons come for a night of Vino & Vibes.

There are always at least two performers every Wednesday night.

In the video above, top line act 'Whiskey & Ginger' returned yet again to the fabulous Botanic Wine Garden, Port Macquarie to play their signature covers and a handful of originals.

For the first two years, Pam Hata curated and booked all the acts appearing at the Original Sound Lounge.

Recent, the super talented Elke Rautenberg has taken over the booking of the weekly events.

You can always check out the Original Sound Lounge Facebook page to see who is performing, and see what’s on the menu at the Botanic Wine Garden. 

Currently the weekly event at Port Mac’s Botanic Wine Gardens kicks off at 6 pm. Be sure to book a table in advance.
