Seismic State return to the stage after a 4 month hiatus.
Bringing their upbeat blues/funk infused alternative rock to Wellington’s Underworld Tavern, it is set to be an epic night of ground shaking original tunes.
Joined by fellow Wellington rockers Dream State Empire and Number 8 Wireless, this is a night not to be missed.
R18 event, with tickets available at Under The Radar ($10 + booking fee) or at the door ($15 cash).
Seismic State are; Sai (guitar), Liam (bass), Matthijs (drums), and Rogina (vocals & guitar).
In June 2021 they supported Auckland rockers, and Aotearoa Music Award winners, Dead Favours on their Riffing and Yelling tour. This was followed by inclusion in the lineup of Bayrock 2022 alongside legends Head Like a Hole, Stellar*, Zed, and Push Push, however the impact of covid restrictions caused the festival to be cancelled.
2024 has been a big year for Seismic State, releasing blues influenced 2 Homes and hard rock banger Blinded By The Sun (which has become their most streamed track).
Their style mixes rock with elements of blues, funk, progressive and alternative - they combine riff-oriented guitar with melodic basslines and driving drum rhythms forming a foundation for creative vocal melodies and thought-provoking lyrics. The result is an accessible and sonically pleasing bland of music not often found in the rock scene.
Dream State Empire
