SURPRISE 🗣️ DROP 🗣️

FINAL SINGLE “NEW INBETWEEN” OUT EVERYWHERE @ MIDNIGHT NZT

Kia ora e te whānau. We come bearing good news. Our fourth of four singles released over the last few months, “New Inbetween”, will be released on streaming and digital in the early hours of tomorrow morning.

Do you know what this means?!
You guessed it. With this release, our “How Long” EP campaign has come to a close. We are delighted to have all four of these songs available to listen.

With the complete EP released, we are presented with an exciting opportunity to focus on new material in practice and in the studio. We are already deep into developing our self-produced “debut studio album” (working title), which you can expect to hear (at least some of it) in 2025.

We are, of course, very excited to celebrate the release of these songs by performing them live for you. When we have dates booked in Aotearoa or elsewhere, you followers will be the first to know.

Sincerely,
- Macho bloody Macho

Hey all. Just popping in to let you know that “Comfort II”, quite possibly our catchiest tune yet, is available everywhere at midnight NZT. We’re chuffed. I mean, just look at how chuffed we looked recording it at with 🤴

You know the drill, pre-save away! Link in bio as always.

Sending you all love and happiness, we hope your year is off to a great start. We’ll be with you soon!

No gigs to announce yet, but rest assured we’re plotting away at some VERY tasty schemes. Stay in touch, yeah?

FIRST NEW MUSIC OF 2025: “COMFORT II” OUT NEXT FRIDAY JANUARY 31st

After we’d gone into the surgery to record this batch of new songs, I must admit, “Comfort II” stood out to me. In our hands was this brittle wee pop song, one of the most colourful tunes we’ve ever made.

It’s a song that was conceived in blistering summer heat on the banks of Ohinemuri awa, and is to be enjoyed in such temperatures. Now that summer has come, and we’ve all had a bit of sun on our faces, it feels right to let the song become everyone else’s!
So this is it!

We’ve performed “Comfort II”live many times, and if you’ve seen us play in the last year, you might recognise it. It’s the one that goes: “I’ve been! So cold!”.

Although we haven’t been able to play live for you in a wee while, the connection between our band and audience feels stronger than ever. Friends, for your continued support and belief in the project, you have our undying thanks.
