Oldies is proud to present a co-headline NZ summer tour featuring Auckland’s Yukon Era and CAKES, who are making the jump across the ditch from the Gold Coast.

Carving out a name for themselves with the local and international post-punk scene, Yukon Era’s songs are loud and melodic, quiet and chaotic. The band have created a modern and polished sound which they deliver via stubborn-ly classic garage rock. In the flesh Yukon Era’s greatest asset might the bands ability to convey their well crafted tunes via a set brimming with youthful confidence to form something truly endearing, energetic and exciting. With their debut album ready for release in early 2019, expect to be hearing a set riddled with a few new selections this summer.

CAKES is a two piece alternative post punk band from ‘straya’s Gold Coast – they came together out of a love for energetic and experimental music,
cementing themselves as a truly energetic groove machine, live and on record. Pulsating, vigorous and determined noise.

SHUGGAH DOOM TOUR

This summer Soaked Oats are embarking on a 13 stop tour around Aotearoa, spreading their slinky sludge pop across our shores with a mixture of festival appearances and headline shows – and the Mill is stoked to be one!

The ‘Shuggah Doom Tour’ coincides with the announcement of a new Soaked Oats’ EP coming in early 2019 with the first single ‘Shuggah Doom’ set for release in January .

Soaked Oats have just stepped off the plane returning from a successful US tour where they travelled in excess of 10,000 miles in a 1980s RV to play 20 shows to the far reaches of the land of Milk & Honey. This is your chance to soak up the sonic fruits of their labour.

With support from the wonderful HA THE UNCLEAR

Rising from the dusty rinsed streets of Dunedin’s Scarfieville; Summer Thieves are a melting pot of Reggae, Hip-Hop, Rock, and Funk.
From humble beginnings, the band have built a large and incredibly loyal fan base and gained the support of Universal Music NZ for the release of their debut album, ‘Warped’.
“We’re just laid back guys who put on parties, we don’t take ourselves too seriously,” vocalist Jake Barton says “we want everyone to have a good time.”

PERFECT FOR THE MILL!

They like genie pants, denim, turtlenecks and dad sandals. MASAYA from Raglan NZ, a fresh homegrown funky train that never stops grooving. Mako Road

2018 has been a loud one for Toogood, between recording, releasing and touring critic and fan-favourite album “Haja” with The Adults and celebrating thirty years of Shihad by touring Australasia with the boys! Now, freshly armed with yarns and tunes both young and old (spanning two Adults albums, three decades of Shihad and an undisclosed duration on this Planet of Sound), this is Toogood unplugged, unaccompanied and unmasked.
