Fly My Pretties are a treasured New Zealand super group that involves a range of top kiwi musicians who do not normally perform together. The latest incarnation Fly My Pretties A Story toured to a nationwide audience of 12,500 people in May/June, followed by the album release in August which debuted at #1 on the charts. The last Fly My Pretties shows sold out so here’s a chance for you to catch this special group playing live before they disband.

The Encore Shows will feature specials guests including Adi Dick and Laughton Kora from seminal local group Kora. Adi Dick was a rising star from The Return of Fly My Pretties with standout songs ‘Get Out’ and ‘Foresight’. He went on to release his debut solo album Our Place (2007) before leaving New Zealand shores to ply his trade abroad in Europe. Laughton Kora is the vocal powerhouse behind Kora and will take part in the A Story songs and present some brand new collaborative material with Fly My Pretties in the extended jam-session second half.

The final Fly My Pretties cast includes: Barnaby Weir, Jarney Murphy, Mike Fabulous, Nigel Patterson (all The Black Seeds), Anna Coddington, Eva Prowse, L.A. Mitchell, Lisa Tomlins (Rhombus), Mara T.K. (Electric Wire Hustle), Nato, Paul McLaney (Gramsci), Riki Gooch and Rio Hunuki-Hemopo (both TrinityRoots), Ryan Prebble, Tessa Rain and Tom Watson (Cassette). And of course, special guests Adi Dick, Laughton Kora and everyone's favourite narrator Dick Weir!

Catch this incredible lineup of musical talent performing together for the last time!
