We’ve gone and added three whole new shows into the mix for your troubles, and announced a bunch of pretty incredible support acts!The local legends of our line-up, The Bats scarcely need any introduction, but just in case you’ve been living under a rock. For over forty years this reliably delightful Flying Nun quartet have been responsible for soothing us, getting us dancing, and creating some of the most note perfect South Island sound you’re ever likely to hear. With their eleventh album Corner Coming Up just released to audience acclaim, there’s no finer time to catch this perfect pop band for their first Tāmaki Makaurau headline show in yonks.

since New Year’s Eve 1982 the same line-up has survived without break-ups, without re-unions, with new songs constantly being added to their repertoire (thanks to healthy songwriting from Robert Scott) and then being recorded - 8 CD’s with no repeats and still receiving 4 star reviews in the likes of Mojo and UnCut for new albums .. a band - since New Year’s eve 1982. Same 4 people still writing, recording, performing, making videos and enjoying each others company -
