Eyegum Scenic Tours Return - Bad Taste & Ripship This Spring

Hosting the multi-venue GREAT SOUNDS GREAT festival this weekend in Pōneke, Eyegum Music Collective have today dropped details about a brand new Eyegum Scenic Tour to look forward to in the near future. Forging fresh connections between artists and venues across Aotearoa, the nationwide initiative this time stars hip-hop head exploders Bad Taste (Young Gho$t and Alphabethead) and sci-fi heavy psych duo Ripship — two acts with just four members in total, leaving plenty of room onstage for an array of dynamite supports when they hit Tāmaki Makaurau, Kirikiriroa, Whanganui, Ōtautahi, Ōtepoti and the capital this spring. Read our catch-up with Eyegum discussing their ongoing projects and fundraising drive HERE, and nab tickets at your soonest convenience...
