The Narcs Unplugged Summer Tour.
Location: Bar Number 8
Region: Wanaka
Dates: Wed, 11 December 2019 @ 8.30pm - 10.30pm
Iconic kiwi band The Narcs are taking their unplugged show on a Summer Tour plus dropping a new single “I Don’t Want To Go To Work Today” in time for the holidays. The tour will take in dates in New Zealand’s South & North Islands and finishing with a show in Brisbane, Australia. Their set will feature new songs plus stripped-down versions of Narcs classics and the many hidden gems from the band’s back catalogue and side projects.
From playing their first gig in Christchurch in 1980, the award-winning band has had a slew of radio hits including 1984 RIANZ Single of the Year/Most Popular Song “Heart and Soul”, 1985 RIANZ Music Video of the Year “Diamonds on China” and the 1986 Silver Scroll winner “Abandoned By Love”. The Narcs’ recording legacy includes two EP’s, several singles, three studio albums: “The Great Divide” (1984), “The Narcs” (1986) “Push The Boat Out” (1996), and a compilation “Best of The Narcs” (2002).
More recently, 2018 saw the band release two singles/videos Summerhill Stone and Not Over, appear at Canterbury’s Selwyn Sounds, and tour with Psuedo Echo. 2019 has seen their Not Over Summer Tour, headlining Nelson’s Marchfest and playing a series of The Narcs Unplugged gigs. In 2020 the band will celebrate their 40th year kicking off with more unplugged shows over summer and sharing the stage with Australia’s Icehouse as part of the Platinum Sounds Series.
