Theia X Vayne - Tour Announce
Theia
and Vayne will perform their own sets
back-to-back and will join each other on stage to perform
‘CREEP’ – a bilingual (te reo Māori
and English), bass-heavy banger, which delivers a cutting
message to sexual predators. Listen HERE In
‘CREEP’, Theia and
Vayne nod to their own personal experiences
and trauma in dealing with sexual harassment and abuse and
also acknowledge the many others who have been harmed and
continue to be harmed by the actions of predatory
people.
Those familiar with Theia
and Vayne’s respective catalogues of
music, or those lucky enough to have caught the pair
performing ‘CREEP’ together at a
festival this summer, will know this promises to be one
helluva club show that’s not for the
fainthearted. The pair will be supported by
DJ Monoga.my. A rising star on Tamaki
Mākaurau’s queer scene, Monoga.my is the
resident DJ at K Road’s famed G.A.Y and
the driving force behind Pride Month’s recently sold-out
Nympho club night. At each city and town,
Theia and Vayne also hope
to give the opening spot to a local emerging
act. Theia makes unapologetic
alt-pop, which pushes boundaries both sonically and
lyrically. Since emerging in 2016, she has gone on to amass
a loyal fanbase across the globe, receiving critical acclaim
from the likes of Pigeons & Planes, Clash and Billboard
Magazine, which recently described Theia as “one of the
most exciting voices in pop to emerge from New Zealand in
the last five years”. She is fluent in te reo Māori
and also has a reo Māori project called TE
KAAHU. Vayne is one of the
fastest rising voices of Aotearoa hip-hop today. Since its
July 2020 release, her debut EP GUTTA GIRL has spread like
wildfire. Teaming up with Montell2099, LMC and Church Leon,
the glowing rapper’s debut is a nod to the Gutta
Girl in all of us. Having grown a notorious following
from packing out K Road venues, to performing at The Others
Way, FOMO and opening for Six60, Vayne season is
on. Get tickets for the Theia x Vayne
