Hipstamatics Announce Soul Revue Tour

New Zealand’s soul supergroup Hipstamatics will tour their fun and funky live set throughout New Zealand this summer in a musical experience not to be missed!

Hipstamatics are a dynamic 11 piece band with a distinct flavour that draws inspiration from the classic 70s and newer funk style of artists such as James Brown, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, The Daptones and Tower Of Power. They have earned a ‘must see’ reputation for their energetic live performances which get everyone on their feet and feeling funky.

The band share “we are very excited to bring to the stage a brand-new show reminiscent of the yester-year. Aptly named 'Soul Revue' Tour, the show highlights our new original material while paying tribute to the classics. Presented in the style of a Soul Revue, this show is one not to be missed.”

Hipstamatics have just released an original single called Stop, written by Carla Flavell and Moses Sulusi. Available here: https://hipstamatics.bandcamp.

The tour will feature new original songs including Thank You For the Flowers, Soul Music and new single Stop, as well as crowd favourite remixes of iconic songs.
