With the release of the stirring, hook-heavy I Believe in Dog, comes the first Salt Water Criminals headline tour.
The band, one that 95bfm “implore(s) you to experience live”, returns after 2023’s House of Highs and their string of visceral and memorable shows in Auckland and Wellington. Word-of-mouth did all their PR work, and quickly Salt Water Criminals became the band that regulars of the underground knew to keep their eyes on. Their sophomore album I Believe in Dog, set for release on May 2, is bigger and brighter than its predecessor, full of piercing lyrics, enormous choruses, and sing-able riffs.
Featuring Office Dog’s Mitch Innes, Daffodils’ Louis Graham, and Awning’s Damin McCabe, the I Believe in Dog Tour is the statement that backs up one of the most intriguing albums to come out of Aotearoa this year.
