Angus And Julia Stone to Return to NZ

Angus And Julia Stone to Return to NZ with Their Snow World Tour

THURSDAY AUGUST 17, 2017 – Australian folk rock/indie duo ANGUS AND JULIA STONE will return to New Zealand this December bringing their Snow Tour to iconic venues in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch.

Following on from a sold-out tour in Australia, the duo will play a series of all ages, intimate venues around the country including Auckland’s Civic Theatre (December 15), Wellington’s St James Theatre (December 16) and Christchurch’s Isaac Theatre Royal (December 17) as they celebrate the release of their brand new single ‘Snow’, the title track from their forthcoming album.

Tickets for all shows go on sale at midday on Wednesday, August 23.

Spark is bringing an exciting pre-sale just for Spark customers from midday Friday, August 18 until 5pm Sunday, August 20.

My Live Nation members may also be among the first to secure tickets during the pre-sale beginning midday Monday, August 21.

‘Snow’ was recorded in Angus’ Byron Bay cottage studio and saw the siblings write the entire album together — a suggestion that first came from producer Rick Rubin, who produced the pair’s 2014 self-titled album.

“That was the first time that we actually started writing together, in the same room, and I guess we took a leaf from that chapter into this record,” Angus recently told musicfeeds.com.au. “This time round though, every song on the record we wrote together.”

“It was quite magical because Angus and I have never spent that much time together, just the two of us,” adds Julia.

Since the duo began performing together in 2006, Angus and Julia Stone’s story has unfolded with an almost magical magnetism that has galvanised the world. Their albums have amassed multi-platinum sales, numerous ARIA and APRA Awards at home and won a fan-base of millions over spiralling tours of the UK, Europe and North America. The band has more than five million listeners each month who tune in to stream their music from all over the world.

Their quietly hypnotic songs have infiltrated our screens from the recent Woody Harrelson film ‘The Edge of 17’ to TV shows like ‘Pretty Little Liars’, ‘Suits’ and ‘Revenge’. The pair has also cast their spell over the world's key festivals including Coachella, Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo, Austin City Limits and Splendour in The Grass.
