Legendary Wellington post punk Proto-Shoegazer/Dreampop pioneers Beat Rhythm Fashion return from a 35 year hiatus to pick up exactly where they left off, with their timeless ground breaking atmospheric alternative rock pieces like Turn of the Century and Beings Rest Finally with a new album of material. Nino Birch (guitar & vocals) & Caroline Easther (ex-The Chills drums & vocals) team up with Rob Mayes (ex-Throw, dolphin, Kimo - bass) to deliver a new album - Tenterhook, and back it up with a nationwide tour.

There are a lot of things you'd be reasonably expected not to hold your breath for in 2019, but you can cross a BRF tour and album off that list and catch them live and on record.

The Album is available now in deluxe gatefold CD with 16 page booklet & lyrics from the Failsafe Website or for download from their Bandcamp Page.
