Little Mix announce NZ show & homegrown special guest, Robinson
Presented by Live Nation
The world’s biggest girl band, Little Mix today announced the addition of an Auckland show to their five date Australian LM5 - The Tour this December. Kicking off in Perth on December 7 the UK pop superstars will head across to New Zealand to perform one show only at Auckland’s Spark Arena on Thursday, December 19, their first New Zealand tour since July 2017!
Little Mix released their brand new single Bounce Back on June 14. The song was produced by the legendary Stargate (Rihanna, Beyonce, Katy Perry), and features an ingenious sample from the classic Soul II Soul smash Back To Life.
“New Zealand is one of our favourite places to visit, and we always love seeing all your beautiful faces when we’re on tour. Our fans really are the best, we adore them so much, and we can’t wait to come back in December and treat them to some very special moments from LM5 in our amazing new live shows!” - Little Mix.
The show will see Little Mix perform songs from their latest album LM5 such as the global smash Woman Like Me, alongside their greatest hits including Touch, Shout Out to My Ex, Black Magic and Wings. Little Mix’s fifth album, LM5, written and produced by the band with such luminaries as Ed Sheeran, Jess Glynne, Camille Purcell, MNEK, Timberland, Loose Change, TMS and RAYE. The collection is their strongest work to date, being as the girls themselves say “the album we always wanted to make”. Woman Like Me featuring Nicki Minaj, the first single from LM5, stormed the charts to become Little Mix's 13th UK Top 10 hit.
Little Mix have sold more than 50 million records worldwide and notched up a total of four UK No.1 singles, four platinum-selling albums and nine platinum selling singles, surpassing a record previously held by the Spice Girls. Their album Glory Days is the biggest selling album by a female group this millennium in the UK, alongside being named the longest-reigning Top 40 album for a girl group ever.
Since 2011, Perrie Edwards, Jesy Nelson, Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Jade Thirlwall have not only established themselves as one of British pop’s brightest acts, but as a global pop phenomenon. They have fully cemented their status as the world’s biggest girl band, with the quartet asserting dominance in the charts album after album.
New Zealand pop act Robinson will be special guest support on all dates. Karma is Robinson’s latest release, following an array of successes for the pop newcomer. In 2018 her debut single Nothing to Regret was certified Platinum in New Zealand and Australia, she received two nominations at the New Zealand Vodafone Music Awards for Breakthrough Artist of the Year and Single of the Year, and she finished a successful UK and European tour supporting Hayley Kiyoko and Australian tour supporting Dean Lewis.
