Skilaa 'Tiger In the River' Album Release Party

Psych RnB five piece SKILAA announce their highly anticipated debut album 'Tiger In The River' - and they'll be celebrating with two headline shows in Auckland and Wellington alongside some of Aotearoa's favourite acts.

Freshly shortlisted for the APRA Silver Scroll, 'Tiger In The River' features the Student Radio and bFM Top 10 dance favourite ‘I Never Knew’, collaboration with a true Hip-hop Prince of Detroit rapper Guilty Simpson (of Dilla prodigy and Leonard Simpson Duo fame) on the scathing track Hip-hop ‘Money’, and the creative pairing of production team Night Watch for the humorous, surrealist fairytale of a music video for ‘Jenny Greenteeth’.

Over 4 years in the making, the eclectic full length LP features the multi layered melismatic singing that is a signature of Chelsea’s writing style, delicate to laser-like textures and chord progressions from guitar genius Michael, molten-flowing grooves laced with harmonics from Tom Dennison on Bass, and the jaguar-like, rippling power of Adam Tobeck’s drumming to underpin the rest of this extraordinary body of work.

This will be the first chance to hear the electrifying 10 song debut album performed in full. Not to be missed!

Each ticket sale will also come with a digital download of the 'Tiger In The River'.

5th Sept - Tāmaki Makaurau - Neck of the Woods - support from She’s So Rad & Lips
