Reb Fountain announces 2021 New Zealand tour dates
Award-winning singer-songwriter Reb Fountain has announced she will bring her new album IRIS to iconic venues around New Zealand this November and December.
From touring with Crowded House, to winning the 2021 Taite Music Prize, to knocking it out of the park at the Flying Nun 40th Anniversary gala, Reb Fountain knows how to wow an audience or two. Now, with her band in tow, she is set to bring her spell-binding live performances to the stage once again.
Reb Fountain 2021 ‘Iris’ Tour Dates
- November 27, 2021, – Glenroy Auditorium, Dunedin
- December 3, 2021, – Opera House, Wellington
- December 11, 2021, – The Civic, Auckland
Tickets go on sale Friday 6 August @ 11am NZST
Alongside debuting music from her highly-anticipated new album IRIS, Fountain will of course also be diving through her favourite material from her award-winning self-titled album.
The aforementioned self-titled album was only released in May 2020 – her first through legendary New Zealand record label Flying Nun – and saw her songwriting take a somewhat darker turn. Celebrated by critics and fans alike, as well as winning the 2021 Taite Music Prize, she was also shortlisted for the Silver Scroll Award for her song ‘Don’t You Know Who I Am’, and the album nominated for five New Zealand Music Awards.
Now it leads perfectly into album number five. Combining pop elements with her trademark noir folk-punk sound, IRIS is sure to hypnotise fans once again – and on the live stage is where Reb Fountain shines brightest.
Reb Fountain will take her new album IRIS around New Zealand in November and December. Tickets are on sale via Ticketmaster.co.nz.
