“11 years gone by. it's weird looking back at it with hindsight. i think some of it has fermented better than other parts. but i can at least step back from it now and see it for what it was. it was some honest shit that we weren't trying to take too seriously. and that's what i like about it now. it was never too up itself. it was just the noises that came out of us at the time. a bunch of kids having fun. hard to hate on that.” - Tom Scott

OCT 22 – SAN FRAN, WELLINGTON

OCT 27 – POWERSTATION, AUCKLAND

TICKETS AVAILABLE NOW at www.homebrew.dog

100% GOOD is thrilled to announce Home Brew will be performing two headline shows in Wellington & Auckland this coming October to celebrate the reissue of the band’s seminal self-titled album Home Brew.

It’s been over a decade since the release of Home Brew, an uncompromising, anti-establishment snapshot of honesty, self-reflection and disillusionment. With that honesty, Tom Scott, Haz Beats and Lui Gumaka created the clearest picture of the 2010s zeitgeist yet - somehow blending hip-hop with Trade Me, Pak ‘N’ Save, John Key and whatever drug “killed the dinosaurs”.

Rising to equal parts greatness and infamy, the double album split into two discs Light and Dark, has now become synonymous with hip-hop in Aotearoa. Its impact was followed by a long list of successful musical endeavours from the members - including the critically acclaimed and award winning Avantdale Bowling Club, Team Dynamite and @Peace - alongside fostering multiple artists under the YGB label.

Home Brew (11th Anniversary Edition) is a faithful reissue for a fanbase that has stayed loyal to the project since inception, for nearly two decades. The 11th Anniversary Edition will be available on CD and - for the first time since the ultra-rare 2013 pressing - a 2xLP 180g gatefold Vinyl.

Both feature brand new & reimagined illustrations from Guy Brock - the artist behind the original iconic cover, and are remastered by the original mastering engineer Ben Lawson.
