We Mavericks All This Noise Tour

WE MAVERICKS make a triumphant return to Aotearoa New Zealand in celebration of their new release “All This Noise”, performing a carefully curated collection of tracks from their forthcoming album “Heart of Silver”.

They are real-life troubadours and masters in the art of connection; Victoria Vigenser (NZ) and Lindsay Martin (AU) interweave effortless strings, soulful vocals and driving rhythms to form a singular, intense musical voice. The duo have been called contemp-folk, alt-country and acoustic-pop, but no words capture their unbelievable musical kinship, or the deeply heartfelt way they relate to their audiences.

Combining both lyrical and instrumental prowess, the Tui and AFMA- nominated couple have an inexplicable appeal that has seen them on a steep rise to festival stages throughout Australia and New Zealand. This year sees them touring Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and Europe.


“He has a familiar soft folk tenor. She has a strong ringing tone with muscle behind a clear crystalline voice… The violin cries for her and the harmony vocals are divine… We Mavericks are a serendipitous pairing…”
13th Floor, NZ

With support by Velvet Arrow

VELVET ARROW takes you down a lost path of dark nights and lonesome dreamers...

Heavily influenced by Radiohead, Nick Cave and Leonard Cohen - Velvet Arrow are a New Zealand based singer/songwriter duo with a darkly romantic alt-folk heart.

Emerging out of the shadows of nowhere, Velvet Arrow’s perceptive lyrical observations woven into beautifully tragic tales and cinematic soundscapes have a way of piercing your soul - reminding the listener you are not alone.

Born and raised in the same small town and country music scene in Northland,
New Zealand many years ago; creative musician/producer Dan Stenhouse and songwriter Hannah Jane met in 2017 a lifetime later to find they both speak the language of solitude and share a love of melancholic melodies.

With a unique blend of harmony; Dan and Hannah can be found wandering through fields of Alt-Folk into Dark Country and somewhere in between.

Velvet Arrow are on a journey to bring their original writings out of utero, starting at the very beginning with ‘Songs of Solitude’ – due to be released on vinyl this November.
