Tempo 38 - Tempo 38 @ The Globe 20 April 2006

24 Apr 2006 // A review by Shade
Tempo 38 were the second act to open for The Bleeders at their Palmerston North gig @ The Globe on Thursday the 20th of April 2006.

Tempo 38 started where Black Chrome left off and didn't miss a beat in keeping the crowd worked up. Even those that had not heard of Tempo 38 before were rocking along to the music and they treated Tempo 38 as though they were just as much of a local act as Black Chrome is.

The amount of energy that Tempo 38 put into each song was truly inspirational and each member of the band showed an amazing amount of passion for the music that they played. Parry's vocals were mind-blowing and everyone loved it.

Tempo 38 is signed to the record label Hit Your Head Records, and the name says it all. This is the sort of music that you shouldn't just tap your feet to - it is the sort of music that you need to really hit your head and move your whole body to. You cannot get away with sitting on the sidelines, you have to get involved. Tempo 38 really know how to play and their experience shows in their music.

Best Tempo 38 song of the night: Con.

Maggie Cocco's Science for Sociopaths - Gig Review: Maggie Cocco @ Lopdell Theatre, Tititrangi - 22/11/2023
27 Nov 2023 // by Shade
Whatever came out of the pandemic, it stranded some amazing talent here long enough for them to enrich our musical world. Down into the Lopdell labyrinth, a buzz of age-spanning expectancy waited for two of these: Maggie Cocco and her accompanist for the tour Bonnie Schwarz who would add much more than just ‘sad cello’ to tonight’s epic cycle of piano songs.

Eve Kelly @ Jam Factory, Tauranga - 03/03/2023
08 Mar 2023 // by Shade
The ‘Sold Out’ sign is a good sign and it went up several days before Eve Kelly’s first show at The Jam Factory in Tauranga’s Historic Village. Whakatane-based Eve Kelly is a star on-the-rise and she put on a show that left her audience, old and new, elated and begging for more.

Coridian - Single Review: Seed II
21 Oct 2020 // by Shade
There's an implicit line in Rock music between the head-banging craze that makes you want to raid the mosh pit, and the refined preciseness of a subtle yet powerful tune. Very few bands can master both.
