New Zealand music lovers are in for a treat as two of the country’s finest singer-songwriters join forces to dazzle audiences.
Bic Runga’s accomplishments are already enough to label her a
national treasure…three number one albums, a swag of hit singles and a Silver
Scroll songwriting award. Bic Runga has been writing and recording her next
record with this material being debuted live at these concerts.
Now Bic Runga will be touring with Tiny Ruins.
Songwriter Hollie Fullbrook from Tiny
Ruins has seen a groundswell of support for her music at home
and overseas, with fans such as David Lynch, NPR, The New York Times and Kurt
Wagner of Lambchop singing her praises in the past year. Along with drummer
Alex Freer and bassist Cass Basil, the band has won over international
audiences touring with the likes of Sharon Van Etten, Calexico and The Handsome
Family. Playing over 130 shows in 2014, their mesmerizing live performances
have seen recent appearances at Sydney and Perth Arts Festivals, End Of The
Road Festival in the UK and Celtic Connections in Glasgow. Their Most recent
album, Brightly Painted One, was awarded Best Alternative Album at the 2014 NZ
Music Awards.
These two talented women will take to the stage with their respective bands,
including drummer Kody Neilson joining Runga, across some of New Zealand’s most
beautiful and intimate venues, giving audiences a rare opportunity to see them
showcase new material and reimagine cherished favourites in a solo capacity,
with their bands, and together for a special finale.
These remarkable concerts will be seated, with capacity limited to ensure that
both the audience and the artists will leave the show knowing that they have
been part of something truly special.
