Kate Bollinger (USA) Down Under Tour

Sat, Jan 17 at 8:00 PM

The Triffid

Event Information

Indie Sensation Kate Bollinger Announces Debut Shows in New Zealand and Australia Kate Bollinger, the Virginia-born, LA-based multidisciplinary artist is thrilled to announce her debut shows downunder. Bringing her introspective lyrics, breezy melodies, and genre-blending sound to audiences with her freshly announced deluxe version of critically acclaimed album ‘Songs From A Thousand Frames Of Mind’ - blending classic pop songcraft with covert punk instincts, citing a wide range of inspiration from ’60s icons like Françoise Hardy and the Velvet Underground to ’90s touchpoints like Pavement and the Elephant 6 Collective. The result was a collage-like vision akin to flipping through your coolest friend’s record collection.   “I wanted to make some more kind of home-recorded versions of the songs. Bring them closer to what they were when I first wrote them,” she adds. For “Any Day Now”, she and co-producer Jackson MacIntosh (Sheer Agony, TOPS, Homeshake) recorded a more sparse and intimate cassette 4-track version. A jangle-pop gem in its album form, the track is reimagined with layers of acoustic guitars and a barely-there snare drum. “Kate Bollinger writes smart, melodic indie pop music. It makes for easy listening, but there's real insight in her lyrics. Dig deeper and you'll discover a thoughtful songwriter coming into her own.” - NPR <iframe width="640" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/j0HZgVoARWs?wmode=opaque" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="" class="fr-draggable"></iframe> "The indie-folk singer Kate Bollinger finds the silver lining in loneliness on this melancholy but ultimately hopeful piano ballad...Bollinger’s sweet, plaintive voice sounds muffled, as if enveloped in a gray cloud that, by the end of the song, has begun to dissipate." - The New York Times <iframe width="640" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/-uieNKbYvBE?wmode=opaque" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="" class="fr-draggable"></iframe> Kate Bollinger Australasia Tour January 2026 9th - Double Whammy, Auckland, New Zealand10th - SLACKBARN!

ABBATH DOOM OCCULTA

For nearly three decades he helmed one of the most influential metal bands ever to emerge from Norway - Immortal. “Return To The Raven Realms” tour revisits the past and pays tribute to ABBATH’s legacy by performing a carefully selected set of old fan favourites and iconic metal anthems he co-wrote and recorded with Immortal in the period 1992 - 2009. With his characteristic voice, signature guitar riffs and undisputed talent as a stage performer, the charismatic singer helped spearheading the Norwegian trio from local clubs to the biggest festival stages in the world. From the early beginnings with albums such as “Diabolical Fullmoon Mysticism” and “Battles in the North”, to chart toppers “At the Heart of Winter” and “Sons of Northern Darkness”, ABBATH has through his work with the group left a major imprint on the worldwide phenomenon that is Norwegian Extreme Metal. Snarling at the forefront is the hideous three headed monstrosity that is WEREWOLVES and their unrelenting, vicious death metal barrage along with BASTARDIZER and their filthy brand of black thrash ‘n roll that raises fists and induces a whirlwind of rabid headbanging.

Blending extreme metal with neo-classical precision and a hip-hop vocal cadence, they deliver an ear-melting, rapid-fire assault unlike anything else. At inhuman speeds, ARCHSPIRE combines blistering virtuosity with a party-like atmosphere, often pulling fans on stage for drinking contests and games before leveling the crowd with their unique brand of death metal. With 2017’s Relentless Mutation and 2021’s Juno Award–winning Bleed the Future, ARCHSPIRE redefined the limits of extreme metal. Their mix of aggression, surgical precision, and light-speed vocal delivery has earned them a reputation as one of the most innovative and extreme bands in modern death metal. Since their unholy inception in 1995, death metal miscreants ABORTED have been one of the pioneers of the genre and have annihilated friend and foe with relentless intensity and an uncompromising mix of flawless technicality and raw emotion. Having carved a niche for themselves in the extreme realm, ABORTED initially gained notoriety by offering up ruthlessly fast death-grind with groovy breakdowns on their early works (‘The Purity Of Perversion’, ‘Goremageddon: The Saw And The Carnage Done’). By meticulously crafting and introducing more technical elements on more recent releases such as ‘Terror Vision’, ‘Retro Gore’ and ‘Mania Cult’, ABORTED has consistently sharpened their lethal blend of ferocity. With their slamming sonic signature. New Zealand’s ORGANECTOMY have time and time again proven their worth by slapping many extensive international tours under their belt. Possessing an inexhaustible dedication to their live performances at the forefront, and an unwavering drive to continue rising and destroying the musical world, ORGANECTOMY will be a body jolting experience you won’t forget.

It’s become my source of strength and confidence. I’ve realised the power of it. All the people I find exciting and inspiring are somehow strange.
