Supermodel touring the North Island with Sleeping Dogs
Thursday, December 15th, 2011
Wellington rock icons Supermodel are teaming up with Christchurch wave-makers Sleeping Dogs in an eight-date tour through the North Island this summer. In a fresh incarnation of the Live and Loud Tour – a tour which took Sleeping Dogs throughout New Zealand’s heartland for 30 memorable shows in 2011 – the newly recruited Supermodel join the musical crusade to bring rock to the people.
Supermodel are fresh off the release and promotional run for their successful debut album To The Mountains, and are a highly experienced live outfit. They have supported some of our country’s finest musical exports including Midnight Youth and Gin Wigmore, and are right at home playing to a packed out pub or to a crowd of 15,000. The focus of their music is on melody, harmony and a rocking tune; the juxtaposition of having a brother and a sister fronting the band makes for an excellent live dynamic that should not be missed.
Sleeping Dogs are currently writing their next album in Christchurch, and are keen for more adventure since concluding the 2011 leg of their tour for their most recent album, Myth Reducer; recorded with legendary producers Greg Haver and mixing guru Clint Murphy. A recent foray to the North Island whetted the interest of both themselves and their audiences, and they are now back to deliver their musical message in full. Their music has been described as “unavoidable, deep and unapologetic”, so if you are a fan of highly original rock music… you must see this band.
Supermodel and Sleeping Dogs will be wending their way through the winding roads of the North Island in 2012. Join them, and you will be entertained.
