Australian Alt Pop Duo This Way North Tour NZ in September
Powerful Australian alt/pop Duo This Way North return to NZ his month on tour
Off the back of their recent Canadian Tour, Australian alt/pop Duo This Way North have a National NZ tour kicking off this weekend:
• Sept 14th Thurs: Wunderbar, Lyttleton
• Sept 22nd Fri: Meow, Wellington
• Sept 24th Sun: The Wine Cellar, Auckland
They return to New Zealand for the second time this year after their inaugural tour taking place in April. They instantly fell in love with the NZ music scene and people, leaving them no choice but to come back as soon as possible. With a two week run of shows on both islands including the esteemed venues of The Wine Cellar in Auckland and Meow in Wellington. Punchy, left of centre, with a universally appealing groove and melody. Cat brings solid groove based, dynamic power drumming, while Leisha sways with swampy slide guitar, slimmed down soul vocals, live looping and compelling alt-pop melodies. Sometimes likened to The Black Keys, Tame Impala and Ainslie Wills, their unique musical connection creates an explosive sound that’s rarely realised by just two artists on stage.
