In celebration of Matariki (The Māori new year) Join Erny Belle and the band for their first headliner show at Double Whammy.
Erny Belle is a singer-songwriter from Aōtearoa (New Zealand) known for her genre-defying sound, blending pacific-pop, folk, and country influences with deeply personal and poetic lyricism.
Her meteoric rise followed the independent release of critically acclaimed debut record ‘Venus is Home’ (2022) with singles ‘Burning Heaven’ and ‘Hellhole’. A sublime album recorded in the summer of 2019 at her fathers home (an old bus shed, north of Auckland), the nine-song voyage of graceful ruminations, was a stunning introduction to the neorealism yet rich world of Erny Belle.
In 2023, Erny Belle signed to legendary New Zealand label Flying Nun Records and released her highly anticipated sophomore album ‘Not Your Cupid’. Co-produced by herself and De Stevens at Roundhead Studios. The album was nominated for the Taite Music Prize and Album Of The Year at the Aotearoa Music Awards in 2024. It was ranked No.1 New Zealand album of 2023 by Rolling Stone Australia. ‘Not Your Cupid’ is described by Renata as her Te Ao Mārama era, stepping into a world of light. “It’s more about the future & imagining than painting scenes of life around me. Less narrative, more cryptic, less thought, more intuition. Plucked from the clouds or stars somewhere & brought to life by many talented hands.”
