"In
association with Ambient Light, Muzic.net.nz and
Under The Radar, Armed In Advance are excited to announce ‘The Little Big
Show’. On December 8, AIA will bring their big sound and performance to one of
their favourite, intimate little venues in Auckland, with their new friends Fallstate and AnimalHead.
Since releasing their debut full length record Change/Evolve in October 2016,
Armed In Advance have barely found time to take a breath, touring the country
multiple times, playing festivals and opening for some of NZ’s biggest bands.
Following the release of their first follow up single Pain (#2 in iTunes
sales upon its release, now with well over 60,000 streams across all
platforms), and the unmitigated success that was The Auckland City Rockfest,
Armed In Advance have been tirelessly cultivating new material to bring to the
stage from their upcoming release. The band are excited to debut multiple new
songs at ‘The Little Big Show’, with a healthy slab of old favourites to back
them up at Backbeat, the venue where it all started.
“...‘Mistakes and Memories’. ‘Blood on Your Harem’, ‘Stay’ and
‘Same Old Story’ all completely brought that heavy rock vibe that Armed in
Advance are now synonymous for to the stage.” - Sarah Kidd, Ambient Light.
"...The sound these guys create is huge and JP is backed by
one of the best rhythm sections in NZ right now. Solid, tight and full of
energy." - Paul Goddard, Muzic.net.nz
Also joining the line up are two of Auckland’s hardest working, up-and-coming
acts, Fallstate and Animalhead.
February 2016 saw the first ever Fallstate show, on the same day, their debut
album Summer Nights and City Lights was released. They have since
played countless shows across the country and most recently in Australia with
band brothers Fire for Glory. In August 2016, the band entered and won the Ding
Dong Lounge's bands competition and are now supporting their new single, Live
Forever or Die Trying.
Animalhead are Ding Dong’s ‘battle of the band’ winners for 2017, and round out
the line up with a full sounding, tight and frenetic live show, with a debut
single in the works.
