Scotty Austin (Saving Abel) Announces First-ever New Zealand Tour -

American Rock Powerhouse Set to Shake Up The Nivara Lounge on September 26, 2025 New Zealand, brace yourselves.

Scotty Austin, the electrifying frontman of Southern rock giants Saving Abel, is making his long-awaited Kiwi debut. For the first time ever, Austin is bringing his powerhouse vocals, relentless energy, and anthemic rock hits to New Zealand soil, performing an exclusive show with his band at the Nivara Lounge on Friday, September 26, 2025.
Austin, known for his larger-than-life stage presence and raw vocal prowess, took over as the lead vocalist of Saving Abel in 2013. Since then, he’s become synonymous with hard-hitting, Southern-fried rock, delivering high-octane performances night after night. With a voice that drips with grit and an undeniable charisma, Austin has led Saving Abel through relentless touring, sharing the stage with rock legends and keeping the spirit of American rock alive and well.
Now, he’s stepping out with his own band, carrying that same fire and intensity to fans around the world—this time, landing in New Zealand for what promises to be an unforgettable night of pure, unapologetic rock ‘n’ roll. “I’ve played stages across the U.S. and beyond, but New Zealand? That’s a dream come true,” says Austin. “Rock fans here are some of the most passionate in the world, and I’m ready to bring them a show they won’t forget.”
With a setlist packed with Saving Abel anthems like Addicted and 18 Days, alongside his own solo material, expect a night that pays tribute to Austin’s Southern rock roots while showcasing his evolution as an artist. From hard-hitting riffs to stadium-sized singalongs, this show is set to be a defining moment for Kiwi rock fans.

This isn’t just another rock show; it’s a New Zealand first, and for fans of heavy-hitting, blues-soaked rock, it’s an event not to be missed.
