Gig Information

A rare and very special appearance from legendary New Zealand free noise trio, Surface of the Earth. Combining guitar/amplifier hum, drone, crackle and feedback, Surface of the Earth create vast blocks of sound where subtle, fragile textures occasionally flicker.

Christchurch Gallery Te Puna o Waiwhetū is delighted to bring to you this unique performance in a unique setting, before the group departs on its European tour later this year.

Surface of the Earth’s 1996 debut double LP, rereleased by American label Thin Wrist in 2022, his widely lauded as a masterpiece of minimalism, and transmits like “a field recording from another world.” (Black Editions)

The free gig you can't afford to miss.
