$20 – $30
Presented by: Search For Yeti
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 Tauranga show will be Tāmaki Makaurau jangle rock kings Cowboy Dan and local indie/folk singer-songwriter Frances Ellen (performing with her band).
Cowboy Dan make jangly happy sad music from the depths of Tāmaki Makaurau. Their first two EPs are available now, combined and pressed on clear vinyl. Debut full-length ‘Dreams That Feel Like Falling’ is set for release mid 2025, with first single ‘Autumn Leaves’ streaming now.
Frances Ellen is a local singer-songwriter based in Tauranga, with authentic and evocative songs that were recently released on her self-titled EP in 2024, produced by Reb Fountain and Dave Khan. Featuring violin, piano-driven melodic pop with velvet vocals, she brings an alt-pop/contemporary folk sound with her band.
