KING TUFF (USA / SUB POP)
King Tuff is the brainchild of garage-rocker Kyle Thomas. Known chiefly as King Tuff to the rock-nerd underworld, he has moonlighted in a multitude of bands, such as psych-folk band Feathers, garage punk and Sub Pop affiliated outfit Happy Birthday as well as J Mascis’ doom band Witch.
King Tuff’s charisma is magnetic, his shows have been likened to cheap-beer-soaked tent revivals, while he combines the stadium-sized guitar licks of Erik Cartwright with the bratty whine of Eric Cartman. King Tuff’s solo debut album, Was Dead, was the sort of album most scuzz-loving musicians would incinerate their garages to make! While his latest S/T album won critics over worldwide.
He will be ripping up the stages at Auckland’s King’s Arms and Wellington’s Bodega. These shows are set to get you up and loose and let you bring in the week right!!
Monday 29th April - King’s Arms - Auckland - With Husk and Yolanda
Tuesday 30th April - Bodega - Wellington - With Shietgiest and Special Guests
