New Zealand, are you …ready for it? As her mammoth North American tour draws to a close, the Taylor Swift reputation Stadium Tour lands in Australia next month for five massive shows, before igniting Auckland’s Mt Smart Stadium on Friday, November 9.
Slaying audiences with dazzling, powerhouse performances nearing two-hours, the Taylor Swift reputation Stadium Tour celebrates the ten-time Grammy winner’s sixth studio album and fourth RIANZ #1, the critically-acclaimed reputation featuring tracks …Ready For It?, Call It What You Want, Gorgeous, RIANZ #1 Look What You Made Me Do and the latest Australian and New Zealand single Getaway Car (out now through Universal Music New Zealand).
Joining Taylor Swift on all Australian and New Zealand dates will be homegrown indie-pop duo, special guests, Broods, plus internationally acclaimed pop trailblazer, Charli XCX.
Broods comprised of siblings Georgia and Caleb Nott, released their latest single Peach in August; the first track to be lifted from their third album which is expected in early 2019.
Broods had their breakthrough with the 2014 platinum single Bridges, from their full-length debut, Evergreen. Evergreen reached #1 on the RIANZ charts and also spawned the platinum hit, Mother & Father, and gold certified singles Four Walls and Never Gonna Change. In 2015, Evergreen won Best Album and Best Pop Album at the VNZMAs, while Broods also claimed the Best Group and Radio Airplay Record of the Year.
The duo released their follow-up sophomore RIANZ #1 charting record, Conscious, in June 2016. The album featured another platinum single, Free, as well as the gold certified hit, Heartlines. In 2016, Broods swept the VNZMAs, claiming Album of the Year, Best Group, Best Pop Album, People’s Choice, and Single of the Year.
Opening the Auckland show will be 26-year-old Brit Charli XCX whose rise to global pop stardom has been meteoric. Regarded by The NY Times as a “pop royal”, the Grammy nominated multi-platinum selling singer, songwriter and artist is currently on tour supporting Taylor on her U.S. stadium dates.
Charli has framed a career as one of the most respected and in demand songwriters in pop today. She is the force behind the platinum hit Boom Clap, gold single Break The Rules and After The Afterparty; and has collaborated on massive millennial hits with Icona Pop, I Love It, Iggy Azalea, Fancy and David Guetta Dirty Sexy Money.
Charli’s current trap-infused track, 5 In The Morning, entered playlists across the world and exceeded six million streams in just a few weeks from release.
Final tickets for the Auckland show are on sale now.
