The infectious pop sound of Auckland’s Openside has been one of the more pleasurable things catching on this winter. Latest single ‘Letting It Out’ sees them swerving into new electronic territory from their energetic pop-punk roots.

Lead singer Possum Plows is growing into a charismatic presence as they get more shows under their belt, having recently opened for Ladyhawke and 21 Pilots and selling out their own headline shows in the city.

Kiwi fans snapped up tickets immediately to see Melanie Martinez who has been causing tidal waves of interest around the world since the release of her debut album Cry Baby in 2015.

Melanie conceives and directs all of her companion videos, and her visuals and songs have been a worldwide online phenomenon with a staggering number of views and downloads.

 Her first headline show in New Zealand at Auckland’s Powerstation on Friday 12th August is now sold out.
