* TG Shand
Described most often as “dreamy”, T. G. Shand brings a modern nostalgic vibe for lovers of lush, twangy guitar pop. These beats-driven tracks come with a classic 90s shoe gaze twist, with influences from the likes of Curve, Chapterhouse, Medicine and equally from modern R&B/hip hop heroes.

*Blair Parkes
Blair Parkes is the Te Karoro Karoro / New Brighton based singer and songwriter of Aotearoa / New Zealand acts running club, all fall down, bridal path, cardigan bay, condensations, creeley, the l.e.d.s, the letter 5, little dead things, range, saturations, swim everything, thomas : parkes, 103.
He is super excited to be playing at Space Academy where he will be performing stripped back electric versions of songs from his forty year career.
Blair’s recent single, ‘time will stop all of its meaning’ topped the Radioscope alternative airplay charts in February…but will he even play it? come along and see !

*Admiral Drowsy
Admiral Drowsy is the song writing veneer under which you will find Luke Redfern Scott.
Luke has been residing in Aotearoa since the winter of 2016 and has gone on to release two full length albums ‘The Gutter Boy Spectates’ in 2021 and the more recent ‘Industrial Consistency’ released back in January 2024.
His music has been said to sound like distorted medieval folk allusions, songs that have a whispering mystery to them. He has performed sporadically over the years and has been lucky enough to play at a number of venues across the motu and has collaborated with a number of different artists.
