To celebrate this new release, Turkey The Bird is hitting the road for an epic tour across the North Island with 12 unforgettable shows in October and November 2024. Each performance promises a wave of energy, passion, and the irresistible charm that fans have come to love.

Mark your calendars, gather your crew, and prepare to embark on a musical adventure with Men, Fish, Boat. This is one voyage you won't want to miss!

New Zealand's folk trio Turkey The Bird will remind you of the famous Margarita cocktail infused with a hint of Simon & Garfunkel, 2 ounces of Mumford and Sons, a splash of banjo and served on ice on a sunny day. Catchy folk songs with stunning rich melodies and effortless smooth lyrics. Songs that tell uplifting stories about love and life.

Hailing from the New Zealand left coast town New Plymouth, this uplifting band will hit you with beautiful three part harmonies and toe tapping rhythms. The bearded trio features Andre Manella from Switzerland on guitar, bass and percussion, Adrian Whelan from Ireland on guitar, mandolin, bass and spoons,
and Sol Bear Coulton, the token kiwi, on Banjo and slide guitar.
