Bittercup

Taranaki alt-rock band Bittercup returns to Lucky Bar + Kitchen - Whanganui for round two with support from Emily Riordan! Further special guest to be announced.

Bittercup is intense, dark, and unpleasant. Like a good coffee. It is the personal catharsis machine of Callum Wagstaff. He hates himself and has found people enjoy the fruits of his shameful confessions, related in sweet serenades, fervid outbursts, and rarely anything in between.

Emily Riordan plays dreamy, melancholic soft pop influenced by her background in classical piano and singing, with a twist of Lana Del Rey. Following the release of her EP "Waves", a trip hop/trap collaboration with Wellington producer Shxshi, Riordan returns to her more acoustic roots with a collection of fantasy inspired songs.
