Telenova moved quickly last year. Despite the wider world being forced into hibernation, the Melbourne three-piece released the captivating EP Tranquilize which housed triple j favourite Bones, and garnered international praise from BBC 6 Music, KCRW, Vogue Paris and NME. A November lap of Australia promptly sold out, including six triumphant hometown shows in Melbourne; while the band became summer festival favourites, kicking goals at Wildlands and Beyond The City.2022 has shown the first of Telenova’s upcoming more complex body of work Stained Glass Love EP, with first single ‘Why Do I Keep You?’ and its artistically rich self-directed video by lead singer Angeline Armstrong; and 'Haunted' a hypnotic tale of addiction with echoes of Northern Soul amidst dark dub all draped in dramatic synth strings.
To celebrate the EP announcement and new single, the band has shared a run of EP tour dates that includes debut shows in New Zealand.
The Auckland show will be supported by hanbee. With a buttery smooth sound likened to that of Benee, Clairo and Kali Uchis, hanbee is a fast rising indie pop singer from Seoul, Korea. Backed by an organic following, her 2021 single 'buttercup' served as quite the curtain raiser, garnering over 500,000 total streams with and placements with H&M and Zara retail. With her 'odd one out' EP just released, alongside a city pop album due in September, 2022 seems a breakout year for the prolific Korean artist.
