Press Release:

The Drones to support Neil Young and Crazy Horse in NZ

Alternative rock outfit The Drones have been announced to support Neil Young and Crazy Horse in Wellington and Auckland this March. The five piece from Melbourne have just released the fifth studio album ‘I See Seaweed’ which sees them take the road next April to tour the album throughout Australia.

Loved for their brutally beautiful and uncompromising live shows, The Drones are back on the live touring circuit for the first time in two years, this being the very first time The Drones have ever performed in NZ!

The Drones first formed out of Perth in 1998. They are widely known as one of Australia’s most critically acclaimed bands. In 2006 The Drones were awarded the inaugural AMP (Australian Music Prize) Award for their album ‘Wait Long by the River and the Bodies of Your Enemies Will Float By’.

The Drones are Gareth Liddiard, Fiona Kitschin, Dan Luscombe, Mike Noga and Steve Hesketh.

I See Seaweed is available digitally and in store independently through MGM Distribution now.
