Mel Parsons Regional Sabotage Tour

Mel Parsons announces 16-date Regional Sabotage tour

Following on from Mel Parsons’ sold out Sabotage tour of main cities in June, Plus1 is delighted to announce 16 regional shows around Aotearoa New Zealand to meet demand for more shows in more cities.

From Whangarei in the North to Invercargill in the South, Mel Parsons undertakes her biggest tour to date, from 12 September to 20 October.

The tour announcement is hot on the heels of her critically acclaimed Sabotage LP peaking at No. 2 in the New Zealand Album Charts.

Sabotage is the Lyttleton-based artist’s sixth studio album and fans have already lapped up singles Offer Down, Little Sadness, Circling The City, and new single (and streaming hit) 5432.

The album, recorded in Lyttleton at Basement Studio and co-written and produced with Josh Logan, sees a contemplative Parsons skillfully weaving together a tapestry of ethereal and hypnotic soundscapes. The songs are raw, and at times dark – perhaps a reflection of the time in which they started to emerge; written across lockdowns.

What the critics say of Sabotage:

"Sabotage is pure triumph" 4 stars Rolling Stone Australia
"Hypnotic songs and clever arrangements" - Graham Reid, Elsewhere
"a seasoned songwriter in her element" - UTR
