This September/October, presented by music discovery website www.theaudience.co.nz, Clap Clap Riot will embark on an eight-date nationwide tour, supporting the release of their highly praised debut album, ‘Counting Spins’.
The album, recorded between Auckland’s York Street and Studio 203, was released on June 15, 2012, debuting at #11 on the NZ Top 40 Album Chart, and shooting straight to #1 on the Top 20 NZ Album Chart. In tandem, their single So You Say hit #1 on the NZ iTunes Rock Charts, and had thorough spins on radio at The Rock, The Edge and Hauraki culminating in a placing of #4 on the NZ Singles Radio Airplay Charts.
“Worth the wait. This collection is getting repeat play at home and in the car. No greater praise . . .” – Graham Reid, www.elsewhere.co.nz
“Straight-up rollicking, riotous, classic guitar pop” – 4/5 – Lydia Jenkin, NZ Herald.
The tour will see the four-piece take their energetic live show on the road through the country’s main centres: Dunedin, Christchurch, Wellington and Auckland, as well as stop-offs in Tauranga, Napier, Palmerston North.
