Since erupting onto the NZ music scene in the early 2000’s, Elemeno P have amassed fans the length of the country who will need to be quick to snap up tickets to their just announced summer tour! The High Fidelity Vinyl Release Tour spans 14-dates around New Zealand and celebrates the release of their first three hit albums on vinyl; Love & Disrespect, Trouble in Paradise and Elemeno P.
Taking you back to your early 2000’s, Elemeno P will bring their fans all the hits, including legendary tunes such as Verona, Every Day’s A Saturday, Fast Times in Tahoe and 11.57 followed. Fronted by the charismatic Dave Gibson, along with Scotty Pearson, Justyn Pilbrow and Lani Purkis, Elemeno P make a welcome return to the stage this summer.
Currently isolating in Auckland as he makes his return to NZ, lead vocals Dave Gibson states “It’s something very special to be able to escape a Covid winter in NYC and tour New Zealand, live a normal life and in general shake off a rubbish 2020! I haven’t been in a crowded room or even a bar since March and can’t think of a better way to break the ice than to re-release all 3 Elemeno P on vinyl and tour the bjezus out of it!”
