Finn Andrews Of The Veils Announces Two Solo New Zealand Shows
Hot on the heels of a string of sellout shows across Europe and the States, The Veils frontman Finn Andrews is returning to New Zealand soil for two intimate solo shows next month. Last on these shores with his band for Laneway Festival in January, Andrews will be coming home to perform songs from across The Veils' back-catalogue as they were first written, "with nothing for me to hide behind, except for a piano which I guess is actually really quite a good thing for hiding behind," he adds. The limited capacity shows will also provide an opportunity for Andrews to experiment with some recently penned material. Here are the show details...
Update 19th May: Following the sell-out of Finn's Auckland show a new date at the Leigh Sawmill on 17th June has been added to his upcoming visit. Tickets can be picked up over here.

PRESS RELEASE:
Off the back of a dynamic summer Veils tour across New Zealand, and sellout shows in Europe and the USA, frontman and songwriter Finn Andrews returns to New Zealand for two intimate solo performances this June. Showcasing tracks from The Veils catalogue, as well as new material and unheard solo pieces of old, Andrews arrives home just as the winter sets in.
"For these two intimate little shows I'll just be playing the songs as they were first written, with nothing for me to hide behind, except for a piano which I guess is actually really quite a good thing for hiding behind." says Finn "It's also a good excuse for me to try out a few new songs that have just recently come into the world and to see how they fare in the light."
There is strictly limited capacity at both shows
