Spotlight: Flight Of The Conchords Touring Aotearoa New Zealand

Incontestably Aotearoa New Zealand's most beloved musical funnymen, Flight of the Conchords have captured the hearts of fans around the globe with their rib-tickling tunes. The multi-award-winning project of Grammy and Academy-winning songwriter / composer Bret McKenzie ONZM and Hollywood superstar Jemaine Clement, all familiar with FOTC lore will already know the duo emerged from Te Whanganui-a-Tara's vibrant arts community in the late '90s. They then proceeded to conquer the televisual world with their smash hit self-titled HBO show Flight of the Conchords (two seasons, 2007 and 2009), joined on-screen by fellow kiwi Rhys Darby as band manager Murray Hewitt.

Bona fide pop cultural sensations, who happily hopped around genres in pursuit of giggles, FOTC's songbook is documented on two Sub Pop studio long players, 2008's chart-topping self-titled debut and 2009's I Told You I Was Freaky, revisited on Live in London — recorded in 2018 at the Eventim Apollo in London with long-term collaborator Nigel Collins.

And now Flight of the Conchords are back, embarking on their first national tour in 14 years. They're bringing the music and the merriment to Michael Fowler Centre in Te Whanganui-a-Tara Wellington, Wolfbrook Arena in Ōtautahi Christchurch, plus Spark Arena and The Civic in Tāmaki Makaurau.
