25 November 2021 - 0 Comments
Anthonie Tonnon has released a video for Peacetime Orders, the fourth single from his third album, Leave Love Out Of This.
Released on 16 July, Leave Love Out Of This reached #2 in the Top 20 NZ Albums Chart, and #9 in the NZ Top 40 Albums Chart in its opening week – a first top 10 album for Tonnon. It also garnered critical praise from the likes of The Listener, RNZ’s The Sampler, Sunday Star Times,
Paste Magazine, and Triple R Melbourne.
Tonnon is celebrating the LP with a nationwide album release tour featuring a full band, and playing some of Aotearoa’s favourite venues like The Hollywood Avondale, and The
Royal Whanganui Opera House. Rescheduled due to Covid, the tour now begins on Saturday 5 March 2022 (full details below).
Tonnon has been announced as a Top 5 finalist for the 2021 APRA Silver Scroll Award, for the album’s title track, Leave Love Out Of This. He is nominated alongside co-producer Jonathan Pearce, who shares a writing
credit on the song. The Scroll will be awarded on 3 March 2022 at an event at Spark Arena in Auckland. This is Tonnon’s second time placing in the Silver Scroll Top 5, and fourth in the Top 20.
Just announced, Tonnon is also nominated for
an Aotearoa Music Award for Te Kaipuoro Manohi Toa / Best Alternative Artist. The Awards will be held in December at Aotea Centre, and screened live on TVNZ 2 and TVNZ OnDemand.

Peacetime Orders starts with a drum machine and fingerpicked guitars, and descends into an electronic maelstrom. The outro formed the theme for RNZ's award-winning podcast about spies and the cold war in New Zealand, The Service,
and was a starting point for Tonnon's soundtrack to the series. Waiheke Island filmmaker and animator Kristy Pearson directed the new video for the song, which experiments with the possibilities of projection and tricks of the light in
performance.

Anthonie Tonnon: Leave Love Out Of This album release tour

Tonnon describes the show as, “A celebration and culmination of what we’ve developed through the album process, and through the A Synthesized Universe and Rail Land shows. Like the album, it will be a meeting place between organic and synthesised sound, but it will also be a very physical show. All the electronic drumbeats and sampled parts will have humans playing them on stage, on large surfaces, so we’re often playing with drumsticks and whole hands, rather than just fingers.”
Leave Love Out Of This is the first release on Slow Time Records (UK/EU/NZ) not by the label’s founder, acclaimed Dunedin-born songwriter and performer Nadia Reid. It is available on vinyl, CD, and as a
green vinyl Deluxe Edition LP, with a bonus 7” record. All physical versions of the album come with an extra eight minutes of music.
The album is available now via anthonietonnon.com,
slowtimerecords.com, and all good record stores. It is also out on Misra Records (North America)
and Flippin Yeah Records (AUS).
