OdESSA Call It Quits
OdESSA Call It Quits
OdESSA – one of New Zealand’s most electrifying live music acts of the decade (actually, make that ever) have decided to call it quits.
After seven years, over four-hundred magic, sweat-drenched shows, four guitarists, two albums, and many, many tours up and down the country – not to mention countless split pairs of pants – the four current members are closing the chapter with what they do best – one last round of live shows.
The sensational, liquid-limbed showman Matthew Pender fronts this explosively funky group of Paul Mouncey on bass, Al Campbell on guitar and Matt Swain on drums to play their cult classic garage-funk songs ‘Bring The Money Back’, ‘Sugarpop’, ‘I Could Beat You In A Fight’, ‘Bleeder’ and ‘Promises, Promises’, and many, many others in what guarantees to be an unforgettable party.
Nobody in the country puts on a show like OdESSA. Don’t miss these final shows!
