NO CIGAR make a Belfast debut, supported by fellow New Zealanders FRANK ON TAPAbout this Event
Off the back of recent sell-out tours in the UK and New Zealand, NO CIGAR are set to perform their largest headline shows to date across Australasia in October/November 2025. The five-piece band from Aotearoa New Zealand have released three studio LPs, Under The Surface (2025), The Great Escape (2023) and Bienvenido (2022), garnering strong support throughout Australasia, the UK, Europe and the US – captivating audiences with their infectious grooves and compelling storytelling
Under The Surface was mostly written in Chantilly, a small town an hour north of Paris, where the band rehearsed, wrote and recorded music whilst touring Europe in 2023. The record was completed whilst on tour back in NZ with producer, Connor Jaine. The new album showcases their unique blend of psychedelic rock and groovy guitars. Their growing popularity has been fueled by their dynamic live performances, which have earned them a loyal and enthusiastic fanbase.

Jones. Driven by two distinct vocalists, they
balance tightly constructed, rhythm-driven grooves

fluidly from hard-hitting tracks to soft, lush indie
moments while prioritising dynamic progression
over fixed formulas.
