Gig Information
Fresh off a successful tour to eight cities across Aotearoa, Earth Tongue will play a one-off show in Napier alongside Lizard Prom and HiBeta. Come shake off your Christmas cheer with Earth Tongue s explosive fuzz-laden stoner pop and mind frying riff action.
Guitarist Gussie Larkin (Mermaidens) has become a master of the fuzz-smothered riff, and along with Ezra Simons’ off-kilter drumming, they’ve been sending punters into transcendental states since they began gigging in their home town of Wellington in 2016. Following the release of their debut album Floating Being in 2019 via Bristol-based label Stolen Body Records, Earth Tongue toured Australia, the UK and Europe, picking up praise along the way from BBC Radio6, Bandcamp and headbangers all over the world. Get ready for a high energy performance with expertly crafted fuzzy pop songs and disorienting wall-of-sound riffs. See you in the pit!
