More than 400 people filled the 135-year-old bluestone church to hear Auckland singer-songwriter Bic Runga perform in the fourth annual "Acoustic Church Tour".
Runga played a short acoustic set, before picking up her electric guitar and launching into her 1996 hit Drive.
The chanteuse pleased fans both old and new as she mined her three platinum-selling albums - Drive (1997), Beautiful Collision (2002) and Birds (2005) - in the hour and 40-minute concert.
Old favourites, including Get Some Sleep. Sway, Something Good, Winning Arrow, Belle and Drive, intermingled with material from her latest album released last month, Belle, such as her first single in five years, Hello, Hello.
The 35-year-old was in stunning voice on her first major solo tour for three years.
She told the crowd she "loved the ambience of churches".
Runga was supported by Natalia Mann and her band, Kody Nielsen and Michael Logie, of The Mint Chicks.
Runga performs in the "2011 Acoustic Church Tour" at Knox Church again tonight.
