Ringlets – LIVE at Space Academy – Thursday, July 27th
Tickets from Banished Music
After delivering a devastating blow with their self-titled debut album, T?maki Makaurau post-punk unit Ringlets are embarking on a nationwide tour of Aotearoa. Raised not to be empty handed guests, the band will bring with them 12” of wax, freshly pressed thanks to Leather Jacket Records.
Artful noise, ragingly bright post-punk quartet Ringlets could be described as the musical transcript of Black Adder; dark humour and theatre hazed over withrich, gritty colour and evident sonic technicality. With a highly durable,machine-tested rhythm section (A. Poulsen + A. Grey) and two of Auckland’s leading lyrical & melodic consultants (L. Towers + L. Reynolds), Ringlets are fast building a solid reputation.
Releasing their debut, self-titled record in April 2023, the band have solidified their sound as a melting pot of vivid, sonic texture and feel. Produced by De Stevens (Marlin’s Dreaming) and Ringlets themselves, the 10 track LP is an unmissable introduction to this exciting, new offering from T?maki Makaurau.
It’s no wonder they’ve attracted the attention of Chris Ott, editor of PitchforkMedia from 1999 to 2004. These days Ott can be found at the helm of MutualSkies, where the band have found their new home.
One thing is certain: Ringlets can only remain our best kept secret for so long.
