Lips & Phoebe Rings Tour – Christchurch
July 30, 2021 @ 8:00 pm - July 31, 2021 @ 12:00 am NZST
$20Lips is a Silver Scroll winning four-piece musical project led by Steph Brown and Fen Ikner along with Ruby Walsh (Dateline) and Maude Morris (Lexxa) based in T?maki Makaurau. Lips’ music finds its roots in the familiar melodies of homegrown Indie, the tender embrace of Synth Pop, and the humorous side-eye of American New Wave. Ultimately resulting in a sound that’s a celebration of feeling awkward and embracing it anyway.
To celebrate the release of their new full length LP I Don’t Know Why I Do Anything, Lips are hitting the road, traveling the length and breadth of Aotearoa throughout H?ngongoi (July) and Here-turi-k?k? (August).
The tour is a co-headline event, with Lips sharing the van with T?maki Makaurau superstars Phoebe Rings. The band centers around the songwriting of Crystal Choi, a sought after keys player who has toured with Princess Chelsea, Chelsea Jade and A.C. Freazy. The band’s dream pop echoes are further aided by the playing of Alex Freer (A.C. Freazy), Simeon Kavanagh-Vincent (Lucky Boy^), and Benjamin Locke (Sea Views). Their debut single Cheshire was a favourite on the SRN stations.
