The Stinging Nettles - Album Release!

Entry
$10 presales
Body

Join The Stinging Nettles to celebrate the release of their new album 'Live at the Wine Cellar' out now on iiii Records. Thanks to Gerard Crewdson for the great cover art.

The Stinging Nettles are a trio of Wellington’s most ear twisting improvisors. Guitarist Daniel Beban (Orchestra of Spheres, Imbogodom), bass player Tom Callwood (Phoenix Foundation, the Woods) and drummer Anthony Donaldson (Teeth, Melancholy Babes) meld power trio energy music with abstracted psychedelic twang’n’bangery.

The band deftly slides and swoops through a landscape where every sound and structure is absorbed into a free flow of real and imagined species-consciousness!


Presale tickets $10 from Under the Radar
