Jack Daniel Presents Charlie Ash & Knives At Noon Nz Tour With The Nerines

Charlie ASH, Auckland-based quartet known for their synthy indie-pop sounds and spectacular live shows, and Knives At Noon, whose captivating electro-pop is currently exciting reviewers, are playing a New Zealand show near you this winter!

Charlie ASH are fresh from a five-week tour of the UK and Europe: they headed off in mid-May, playing to packed-out venues at the Great Escape festival (the SXSW of Europe) in Brighton and even gracing the cover of the festival programme. They also squeezed in Cardiff, Liverpool (at the SoundCity festival), and Berlin gigs – as well as a sold-out show supporting Ladyhawke at Koko in London and an Amsterdam show alongside fellow Kiwis – and Flying Nun legends – the Bats!

C.ASH are planning to work with Steve Lyon (producer of The Cure and Depeche Mode fame) on future recordings. For the moment, though, they’re excited to be heading out for some shows round the country. Support on the tour will come from up-and coming Dunedin-based band Knives At Noon, who’ve been busy recently, touring the North Island in January to promote their well-reviewed 2nd EP, which was mixed by Dale Cotton (HDU, Dimmer, Die! Die! Die!). They’ve been playing with everyone from the Checks to Clap Clap Riot to the Tutts and receiving heaps of attention for their MySpace ‘remix’ project.

Catch the two bands, with support acts, at a main centre near you. First 50 people through the door get a free Jack Daniel’s premix.
