Ex-Partner Presents: 'Lore-core' Album Release

Ex-Partner returns with their debut album Lore-Core, an eight-track blitz of dense, textural landscapes crashing into Tony Drent’s fragile, distinctly Aotearoan voice, a union which frequently degenerates into lush, dream-like scenes resembling a Safdie brothers film soundtrack or a lost microgenre of the Bloghouse era.

Ex-Partner will be joined onstage by Eleanor Haydn (Centre Negative) and Paul Brown (Horror in Clay) and playing support will be Studfinder and Powernap. There will also be visuals provided courtesy of Job Club
