Daily J Announce 'One For The Road' Tour of Aotearoa New Zealand

Unleashing their five years in the making second studio album Scatterbrains to eager ears earlier this year, Daily J played a whirlwind launch tour of Australia and evidently had such a good time they've announced a big move across the ditch. Before they head away to the sun-baked land of Akubra hats, XXXX beer and kangaroos, Daily J are treating local fans to an eight date One For The Road send-off tour of Aotearoa.

The Blenheim-raised, Tāmaki Makaurau-based sibling team of Jayden, Jonny and Jesse Paul with musical compadre Rick Everard will be spreading their wings all around the motu, with headline dates lined up for Christchurch, Dunedin, Wānaka, Queenstown, Tauranga, Raglan, and New Plymouth, circling back with mid-winter rager at Double Whammy. No doubt there'll be singalongs aplenty, the group have been a consistent presence on our Hot 20 Aotearoa Singles chart with the sun-splashed guitar-pop and breezy grooves of 'For Your Leisure', 'Cheap Tequila Sunrise', 'Tastes Like Forever', 'Sunday Stitches' and 'Happy Slides'. They're encouraging fans to submit their song requests, catch Daily J while you can this June and July...

"This tour isn't a goodbye — it's a big thank you to the place that made us and the people who've had our backs since day one. We're stoked to dust off some older tunes we haven't jammed in years — it's gonna be a huge set. We're jumping the ditch to kick off the next chapter, but first, we want to put on one hell of a show for our home crowd."
