Bio

Speech Act Theory is an Alternative / Electronica band based in Auckland, New Zealand.

Initially a studio concept which started in the later part of 2019, producer/musician Pete Hickman wanted to create an electronica project that paid homage to his influences such as groups like Zero 7, Massive Attack, Ultraísta, Boards of Canada, Death in Vegas, UNKLE among more.

The idea was to fuse electronica music with live acoustic drums and other live instruments. This is where the vision came to bring his love of electronica and a live band together.

Their debut Holding Out was recorded and self produced in the beginning part of 2021. The single was picked up by New Zealand Independent Electronic / Experimental label Blood and Wires and released on Aug 9th 2021.

Their second single Grief Wave was released 17th September, 2021.
