PRESS RELEASE:

Acclaimed Australian surf-garage party animals La Bastard hit the North Island this Easter 2015 for their debut New Zealand tour!

A heady mix of sultry vocals, tight, blistering surf guitar licks and punk attitude, La Bastard’s reverb drenched 1960’s sound has earned the band praise across Australia and the globe, including soul-garage legends The Bellrays and Spanish garage-rock heroes Los Chicos. Renowned for their notorious wild live shows, which see band members crowd-surf, clamber onto tabletops, bars and furniture, and entire audiences join the band up on stage, this is one live show not to be missed!

Fresh from a tour of Spain, France, Switzerland, Germany and the Netherlands, La Bastard visit the North Island for just one week of select shows – make sure you don’t miss out!
