For their New Zealand shows the twosome will be joined by special guest Bashan (aka London-based guitarist Gemma Thompson) and the wonderful i.e. crazy. Here are the details...

PRESS RELEASE:

A DEAD FOREST INDEX are returning to New Zealand for two shows in Auckland and Wellington this coming February!

The expat brothers, Adam and Sam Sherry, perform starkly refined yet richly atmospheric arrangements of guitar, drums and voice - music aptly described as 'potent' and 'compelling... an exercise in restraint and severity'.

Currently based in London, the duo have earned considerable international success in recent years. Extensive touring and collaborations with SAVAGES and CHELSEA WOLFE culminated in the 2016 release of their exemplary debut album, 'In All That Drifts From Summit Down'. Released on the Sargent House label, the album sits comfortably alongside those of stalwart heavyweights like EARTH and BORIS.

Don't miss these rare and intimate shows including two very special guests, BASHAN (UK) and I.E.CRAZY!

BASHAN:
The rarely-spotted solo project of London-based guitarist Gemma Thompson. She will be performing sound explorations evolving from thematic links to film score composition and improvisation.

I.E.CRAZY:
Claire Duncan sings captivating and cathartic, electric folk tales to tease the raw nerves of our national psyche and tell stories about 'the neurotic horror of the banal... our repressed emotions and postcolonial amnesia'.
