27 August 2015 - 0 Comments
Update 17/09 - Auckland has now sold out!
Avalanche City will tour New Zealand this
October, with support from Benny
Tipene.
Dave Baxter (Avalanche
City) and his touring band will bring the music from recent
album - We Are For The Wild Places - to life on the tour of the same name; across
four dates taking in Auckland, Christchurch, Dunedin and Wellington.
We Are For The Wild Places recently debuted at #3 on the Official Top 40 Albums
Chart (and also peaked at #1 on the iTunes album chart).
The album’s beautiful first single, Inside Out has been a chart and radio smash hit – it is currently #1 Airplay after five
consecutive weeks in the top spot; while the single also peaked at #1 on the
sales chart and has remained consistently in the top 10 on iTunes.
The second official single from the album, Keep Finding A Way is an upbeat and catchy pop tune, serviced to radio this week.
We Are For The Wild Places (mixed by Death
Cab For Cutie’s Chris Walla) is a mature and fitting follow-up
to Avalanche City’s
debut album - Our New Life Above The Ground, which spawned the Silver
Scroll-winning single, Love Love Love (currently at 2.3million views on YouTube!).
Dave Baxter is looking forward to performing the new album in front of a live
audience, alongside his touring band consisting of Steve Thomas (drums), Ben
Devery (keys), Dave Love (hammered dulcimer) and Finn Scholes (trumpet).
Supporting Avalanche
City at all four concert dates is another incredibly talented
New Zealand musician, Benny
Tipene.
Armed with an acoustic guitar and a cheeky smile, Benny has become
a firm Kiwi favourite since hitting the spotlight in 2013 with debut single Walking On Water.
His debut EP Toulousefollowed in 2014 and spawned the Gold hits Make You Mine and Lonely. Then
came album Bricks,
with another Gold single, Step
On Up.
The Avalanche City We Are For The Wild Places tour, with support from Benny Tipene, is proudly presented by
