The Eyegum Music Collective team have assembled an absolute whopper of an end of year extravaganza with the inaugural GREAT SOUNDS GREAT festival, happening over five venues in Pōneke's Cuba Street precinct on Saturday 10th December. They've invited friends from all around Aotearoa to perform, including Port Chalmers songwriting icon Nadia Reid, globe-trotting fuzz merchants Na Noise, Tāmaki electronic pop futurists Imugi 이무기, party-bringing fab foursome Hans Pucket, Lyttelton sonic traveller Ben Woods and lots more, with further acts to be revealed in the coming weeks. Taking place at San Fran, Meow, Valhalla, Rogue & Vagabond, and Bedlam & Squalor, you'd have to be a right nutter to miss this all-killer bill — grip the details announced so far and grab tickets while you can...

"With all the disappointment and cancellations that have occurred over the last two years, we're excited to finally put on a big end of year celebration with lots of our favourite bands and performers... As well as showcasing a diverse range of talented artists from around Aotearoa, we also want Great Sounds Great to be celebration of Wellington's incredible live venues that are such an essential part of the local music scene and that have had a rough couple of years." — festival co-curator Sophie Scott-Maunder (Soft Plastics)
