One of Australia’s most prolific rock bands, King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard, are bringing their unique sound to New Plymouth this summer for a concert at New Plymouth’s Bowl of Brooklands on Friday 6 January.

The show will also feature support from Taranaki band Greenbathing and emerging Aotearoa artists Half Hexagon and Carnivorous Plant Society.

With 20 albums, including five in 2017 alone and 10 charting in the Top 20 in Australia – the stats on King Gizzard’s colourful career are stacking up fast for what is arguably Australia’s most innovative, important, and productive rock band.

Headlining festivals throughout the world, they have a fervent worldwide fanbase who share endless memes, mixes, videos, graphics, theories and discussions, as they explore and expand what they have termed ‘The Gizzverse’.

More about the other performers:
Auckland trio Half Hexagon features Yolanda Fagan (Na Noise, Echo Ohs), Julien Dyne (Soundway Records) and James Milne (Lawrence Arabia) – a group which started out as a musical correspondence during the Delta lockdown in August 2021. Once able to meet the marriage of James' analog synths and Julien playing Jaki Liebezeit influenced beats came into focus with Yolanda added her heavily effected vocals to the blend.

Carnivorous Plant Society is a musical experience set with live animations. The talented quintet of five of New Zealand's most accomplished musicians perform their original compositions that ignite the imaginations of both children and adults alike. Mexican mariachi mixes with spaghetti western; futuristic sci-fi blends with bizarre, spine-chilling nuances drawn from Stephen King novels.

Erupting from Taranaki in 2020 preaching stories of hopeful melancholy across Aotearoa, Greenbathing has been refining a timeless, raw sound that shows no mercy. Soaring harmonies, thunderous beats and small-town pub ruckus fuel this genre-bending five piece in their endeavours to the ends of the earth.
