Ōtautahi dance-floor demons YURT PARTY are back on the road, hitting 10 centres throughout Aotearoa with their infectious Balkan-Latin-Dub beats in tow. This time, they're celebrating the release of their brand new single, HOI POLLOI, and they're bringing the party straight to your doorstep.
ABOUT THE BAND:
Over the last few years Yurt Party have won over countless crowds across the country with their unique, high-energy take on live dance music. The 6+ piece Ōtautahi band have been electrifying festival dancefloors and winning over the hearts of their audiences with footstomping fusions of Balkan, Latin and Dub goodness. Their formation of a dedicated following is unsurprising given their seamless pairing of virtuosity and groove-focused music.
Festivals include CubaDupa, Nostalgia, Luminate, Tora Bombora, Relish, Evolve, Kiwi Spirit Festival, Twisted Frequency and more. Propelled by a fully sold out NZ tour in 2023, the HOI POLLOI tour will bring to fans some new musical angles.
