Mads Harrop, is a rising New Zealand singer songwriter known for her raw, punk tinged indie rock and deeply honest lyrics.
Mads has an incredible live act and has been prolific in The Dunedin scene supporting such acts as The Chats, Darts and Reb Fountain. She broke into the Musical scene in 2020 with her timely hit Contagious World .
She has steadily reduced music while completing her master’s degree in music in Otago. This is her first time in the North Island. Mads Family is originally from Tauranga, so she is very excited to preform here. She has added Tauranga’s own Sophie Maude as support.
Mads Harrop is emerging as a bold, authentic voice in Aotearoa’s music scene. She blends gritty rock with vulnerable lyricism, and her open discussions of neurodiversity and disability add meaningful depth and advocacy to her artistry. Her DIY ethos—writing, producing, and performing her work—makes each track feel intensely personal.
