Search For Yeti - Dark So Soon Aotearoa Tour

Te Whanganui-a-Tara based indie rockers Search For Yeti are hitting the road to take their new album 'Dark So Soon' around the country.

Drawing influences from indie rock, britpop, folk and new-wave with an emphasis on hooks and melodies, the album shows a diverse range which has been praised as “a brilliant debut” (Chris Philpott), “warm, expansive and guaranteed to elicit a genuine emotional reaction” (13th Floor), “the songs stick with you, dreamlike in their form” (music.net.nz), and “hard rock, indie rock, power pop, atmospheric, it comfortably straddles them all” (Elsewhere).

Search For Yeti are Luke Marlow (vocals/guitar), Vince Waide (guitar/bass/moog taurus/vocals), Sean Barker (drums, samples, vocals).

Joining the band for the Otautahi show will be the self-described sad songs quartet Model Home and the post-punk stylings of HOIHOI.

HOIHOI are a noise/post punk band influenced by local legends such as DIE! DIE! DIE! and also overseas legends such as Fugazi, Unwound and Pixies. HOIHOI combine loud guitars with vocals in both Te Reo Māori and English.
