Tour News - Elemental Nights
Presented by: Live Nation
Elemental Nights can now confirm a third artist announcement including the highly anticipated performance by internationally lauded artist Dope Lemon.
Slinking out of the silky darkness of the midnight hour towards the blissed-out champagne pinks and purples of twilight, in 2021 Angus Stone returns with his beloved, intrepidDope Lemon project performing a headline show in the Great Hall at Auckland’s iconic Town Hall on Friday, July 23.
Following previous critically acclaimed albums -‘Smooth Big Cat’ (2019) and ‘Honey Bones’ (2016) -singer/songwriter and accomplished multi-instrumentalist, Stone releases his first new single for 2021 Rose Pink Cadillac.
Since its release late May, Rose Pink Cadillac has already accumulated over 1 million streams across YouTube and Spotify, debuting at #16 on the New Zealand singles chart.
Dope Lemon last performed their signature mellow sounds to a sell-out crowd in Auckland in August 2019, devotees and new followers will not want to miss this special one-off show.
Rounding out the exciting line-up for Elemental Nights 2021 and joining Dope Lemon are special guests Mild Orange.
Thanks to the Covid effect, NZ’s own worldly indie-pop band, Mild Orange, have graced the home stage instead of planned US ventures and a return to Europe. Mild Orange’s 2018 debut album ‘Foreplay’ has amassed near 100 million streams globally and their breakout single ‘Some Feeling’ has had over 22 million views on YouTube. Proving that they’re no one-hit-wonder, their second album spawned the popular single “Freak In Me” amongst other groovers. A third album is on the way following retreats to scenic getaway spots.
