Dbldbl Announces Mā Te Wā Tour of Aotearoa

One of Aotearoa's most innovative rapper / producers and an absolute demon / angel onstage, Dbldbl aka Liam Dargaville (Te Rarawa, Ngā Puhi) is bidding us adieu as they set off away on an adventure to "start anew in Bangkok." Shock news likely to get fans (including myself) all weepy, the LIVE MUSIC BAR guest star softens the blow with the announcement of Mā Te Wā sendoff shows nationwide in March, featuring all-killer supports in Tāmaki Makaurau, Te Papaiōea, Te Whanganui-a-Tara, Ōtautahi and Ōtepoti. No excuses, these are the gigs you need to go to — salute Dbldbl's invaluable contributions to our community with friends at the following dates...

"My heart’s both heavy and full. Cos I’m leavin’ on a jet plane. An I don’t know when I’ll be back again. Please come and share a dance with me one more time, for who knows how long ❤ Ka mokemoke au i a koutou".

Press release:

After 9 odd years of rapping and dancing into the hearts of kiwis across Aotearoa, Dbldbl is jet setting from our beautiful motu to start anew in Bangkok.

They’ll be playing one last handful of sweaty, yelly, joyful, and shape-filled shows before they go.

If you're new here - Dbldbl (Te Rarawa, Ngā Puhi, They / Them) favours silly reference-laden raps chock full of the good stuff - chronic pain, crippling anxieties, identity politics, and food. In a fun way, with a groove to dance to, promise.
