Auckland @ The Kings Arms – Friday 27th April 2012
Wellington @ Bodega – Saturday 28th April 2012
Straight out of Tokyo, everyones favourite Japanese garage/rockabilly girl group make a welcome return to NZ this April
Acclaimed for their raucous live shows, the bands last album was a live recording at Jack Whites Third Man Records in Nashville which was released last year. Third Man also reissued their debut self titled album in 2010.
Formed in Tokyo in 1986, the band consists of core members (and sisters) Ronnie and Sachiko, along with returning bassist Yama who was a member of the band through the 1990s.
Most famous for their memorable appearance in Kill Bill, the band have been beloved in NZ since the mid 90s thanks to several return visits and their truly wild live shows. No mere covers band; they take a song they love and deconstruct that rock n roll into punk music by using distortion and noise and screaming as singer/guitarist Ronnie puts it.
Dont miss the chance to see this legendary cult Japanese band!
