The return of the Indie Club

The return of the Indie Club: with The Favoured Few, The DeLoreans and Raphson

New music fans will be pleased to hear that the Indie Club is back with a vengeance next Thursday November 29.

A weekly showcase of bands of all stripes and styles, the new season kicks off with an excellent young lineup: The Favoured Few and The DeLoreans, with tunes provided in the intervals by Raphson.

The Favoured Few are a band of 5 merry men born and bred on the mean streets of East Auckland. They take influence from bands such as the Kings of Leon and The Arctic Monkeys, infusing their talents to create Indie Rock with an arena feel. Look out for their new single 'Pick Up Your Gun', with a debut EP expected shortly.

And who are The DeLoreans? Matt, Dan and Geoff like chilli sauce and spicy food in general - so much so, in fact, that they even considered naming their band "The Hot Tamales," before deciding against it on the grounds that it would make them sound too much like a troupe of male strippers.

Quotes about The DeLoreans:
"Like if I close my eyes I imagine I'm some slick Italian dude walking on the streets of New York in the 70's. Wearing boot cut pants and cowboy boots and shit. You know what I mean?" - Lincoln Vaz

Indie Club is a weekly showcase that promotes independent music - both live and recorded - and has been operating in and around Auckland for the best part of a decade. If you would like to book a place in our weekly lineups, please email Renee Jones: powertoolrecordsnz1@gmail.com

And if you live out that way, it’ll be a fun place for you to go to shows without having to drive into town!
