Gig Information

Sonic Delusion is bringing the groove to the North Island this summer with a string of energetic live shows that promise to be full of funk, fun, and infectious rhythms! Known for their unique blend of indie pop that’s “too funky for folk and too folky for funk,” Sonic Delusion’s high-energy performances have been captivating audiences around the world. This time, the Swiss-Kiwi frontman André Manella, aka Sonic Delusion, is teaming up with French-born Sev Thiebaut on Latin-flavored keys and bass, and the dynamic Ben Dixon on drums, to create an irresistibly boogielicious live experience.

Sonic Delusion has performed over 1500 shows across Switzerland, New Zealand, Australia, and Germany, delivering feel-good music that’s bound to make you smile. In the words of music critic Graham Reid: “Sonic Delusion is funny, fresh and funky…a welcome breath of entertainment, joy, fun, and smiles.” Their loop pedal-driven sound bursts with upbeat, danceable melodies, layered with Sev’s vibrant bass grooves and Latin keys, and Ben’s punchy, toe-tapping drum rhythms.
NZ Musician Magazine's Amy Maynard describes Sonic Delusion's music as full of catchy melodic hooks that make you want to get up and dance, and this summer tour promises plenty of that feel-good vibe. Whether you’re in the mood to kick back and soak in the sunshine or get up and dance, this is a tour you won’t want to miss.

The trio will be performing on the 4th of January at the Monkey House Theatre in Whitianga, the 5th of January at the Kauaeranga Valley Community Hall in Thames, the 6th at the Secret Garden in Waihi Beach, and wrapping things up with a bang at the “Sounds in the Sands” event on the 11th of January in Ōpunake.
Prepare yourself for an unforgettable summer of feel-good music, smiles, and dance-worthy beats with Sonic Delusion!
