Tāmaki Makarau janglers Cowboy Dan are hitting the road to celebrate the recent vinyl release of their Two Eps: We Will Hesitate, When We Eventually Wake / Sentimental Now That We're Leaving.
Aptly described at some point as ‘like The Bats on just the right amount of red bull’, Cowboy Dan continues the great New Zealand tradition of jangly, happy-sad music. Chiming guitars, upbeat rhythms, and poignant lyrics are at the forefront as they craft their unique brand of alternative jangle rock. Since forming in 2015, the Tāmaki Makaurau four-piece have made their mark on the Auckland indie scene as an energetic and engaging live act not to miss.
Joining Cowboy Dan on the road is Search For Yeti who are a Te Whanganui-a-Tara based indie rock/shoegaze/post-rock/ new wave band that frequently enchants audiences with their atmospheric sometimes-quiet-sometimes-not live shows.
Both groups are established in their own scenes and collectively have taken part in a range of music events such as Cupadupa, RNZ Live, 13th Floor sessions, Borderline Festival and countless dance-inducing local gigs in their respective homelands. They are super chuffed to hit the road together for this lil tour and to share the stage with some incredible local acts along the way.
Support at the Te Whanganui-a-Tara/ Wellington show from the incredible Goodnight My Darling: the vision and project of up and coming Wellington based singer-songwriter Maxine Macaulay. With elements of shoegaze, folk and dreamy melody, Macaulay says her ever evolving vibe is a poetic expression of her life and the places around her. Her songs take you on a cinematic journey, while her ethereal vocals lull you into a quiet sense of peace and appreciation.
