The Miltones announced as support for Tami Neilson's NZ tour
Kiwi quintet The Miltones will open for Tami Neilson on her upcoming SASSAFRASS! New Zealand tour.
The seven-date tour begins on July 26 in Nelson and makes its way across both islands before ending in Auckland on August 4.
See below for a full list of dates and venues.
Now just announced, blues-Americana-folk rockers The Miltones will join the SASSAFRASS! tour for four of the shows (Christchurch, Wellington, Hamilton and Auckland). The band’s frontwoman, Milly Tabak, will perform solo at the remaining shows (Nelson, Dunedin, Napier).
The Miltones are an Auckland-based act who have been sending ripples through the Kiwi music scene since their inception in 2014. Their self-titled debut album - recorded in Lyttelton with renowned producer Ben Edwards, who also co-produced SASSAFRASS! - was released in 2017.
The Miltones were also recognised at the 2018 Taite Music Awards, where they received the Auckland Live Best Independent Debut Album award.
The Miltones are also a band that clearly thrives on playing live.
