Music News - Mice On Stilts - Support Acts Announced
26 September 2016 - 0 Comments
Four top-notch Kiwi acts
have been named as support for the upcoming Mice On Stilts tour, which kicks off in
less than two weeks.
Mice On Stilts are marking the release of their Hope For A Mourning album with a show in Auckland at the Kings Arms Tavern on
Friday, October 7 and another in Wellington at San Fran on Saturday, October 8.
In Auckland, Mice on
Stilts will be supported by Toledo Springs; an Auckland four-piece
known for their sweet mix of dream pop and psychedelic rock. Also joining the
bill is Cowboy Dan whose jangly guitars, upbeat rhythms and poignant lyrics put them at the
forefront of Auckland’s alternative rock scene.
In Wellington, Hutt Valley-based psych wizard ENT will open the show with their
mesmerising blend of industrial psychedelia fused with punk, ambient noise and
folk. Completing the mix is Opium
Eater with their unique ‘sludgescape’ vibe.
Led by Benjamin Morley, Mice On Stilts is considered one of New Zealand music’s most
compelling live acts. The band has spent years developing their atmospheric and
uplifting, yet melancholic, sound by playing at bars and clubs in Auckland’s ‘K
Road’ alternative scene.
This year, they received critical acclaim for their debut full-length album Hope For A Mourning,
which featured the single Orca.
They also made the Top 20 cut at this year’s APRA Silver Scroll Award with
their song The Hours.
Now itching to hit the road, Mice
On Stilts is guaranteeing fans in Auckland and Wellington two
shows that’ll knock their socks off and remind people why they’re a band that
must be heard and seen live, to fully appreciate their complex and emotionally
charged soundscapes.
