ABOUT THE ARTISTS:

TOWER OF FLINTS

Tower Of Flints began as the working title for a solo project of Joseph E Harrison (formerly lead singer of Brave New Void), a Wellington-based musician and songwriter. In early 2018, he was joined by Neil Beales (guitar), and more recently, Corey Wilkinson (drums) and Jared King (bass).
Described by some as indie rock and others as post-punk, Tower Of Flints have a distinctive sound that is all their own - guaranteed to please the ears of anyone into well-crafted rock/pop songs with dark, ambiguous lyrics and loud, jangly guitars.
TOWER OF FLINTS will be performing brand new material by the band, along with songs by guitarist Neal Beales and tracks from frontman Joseph E Harrison’s solo album, Therapy For A Cynic, described by reviewer Jel Legg for Muzic.Net.NZ as: "Quite simply, a brilliant album.”
A new album – TOWER OF FLINTS – LIVE AT PAISLEY STAGE - was released in February 2024 and is available on all platforms.

SPINNING LIGHTS

At its core, Spinning Lights has been the brainchild of songwriter Piers Chamberlain, a dedicated musician whose musical journey has been shaped by a diverse cast of collaborators over the years
Piers and his long-time creative partner, Brian Donnelly, once ventured into the Wellington music scene alongside Kirsty Keys as the unforgettable SinkBoat, creating waves across the turn of the millennium However, life's twists and turns led the band into a hiatus when Brian relocated to another city.
But fate works in mysterious ways, and when Kirsty and Piers crossed paths again, it was as if the old songs had been waiting in the wings, ready to burst forth with a renewed vigour. With the addition of the talented drummer Harry Hines, a new chapter of their musical journey began, full of fresh creativity and inspiration.
Spinning Lights has been aptly described as a "dirty power trio with teddy bears," a fitting metaphor for their music, which oscillates between raucous and dark, as if it's just thrown a tantrum and is now settling into a melancholic slumber. Their songs are largely uptempo, adorned with groovy hooks and sprinkled with sparse, cynical lyrics that linger in your mind, leaving you paranoid and wondering - what’s really out there?
