This is going to be a ridiculous evening of music. We have, in no particular order:KING OYSTER
This is one of THE best bands in Wellington.
Driving grooves, classy funk, outstanding musicians. That’s what you get from King Oyster.
The band is Oscar Laven on sax, Blain Fitzpatrick on bass, Matthew Fitzpatrick on guitar, and Jacob Randall on drums. One look at those names, and you know you are in for some remarkable playing.
THE TEMPLE
The Temple is a trio composed of producer Jack Woodbury, drummer/percussionist Nathan Carter (aka Alter Natural), and saxophonist Peter Liley, based in Pōneke. The Temple’s broad palette of influences reaches into minimalism, electronica, ambient, jazz, funk, doom metal, new age, sound art, and jungle, creating a beguiling, kaleidoscopic sound. Their shows explore vast musical territories, and every performance is a ritual devoted to the present moment.
ISKRA
ISKRA are an otherworldly quartet hailing from Te Whanganui-a-Tara formed by saxophonist Josh Buckler and featuring Simon Grove (Niko Ne Zna) on helicon, Ato Kwamena (Culture Embassy) on percussion and David McGurk (Planet Hunter) on drums. Inspired by the likes of Sons of Kemet and the London jazz scene, they bring driving grooves, soaring melodies and the fire of afro-beat, Balkan music and brass-Hhuse.
Think dance party at the end of the world, when the last lights have gone out.
