The Indie Club is a regular event that has been running regularly in Auckland for the past 3 years. It is a gig that promotes bands/artists both
live and recorded. Ideal for new, up&coming and established acts to expand their audience and get their music into peoples hands.

Here's some info about how it works.... The entry price is $10 on the door that includes a FREE cd. Our main focus is to get cds into peoples hands. We cover all the costs of putting the show on i.e.:advertising, production, time, cds etc. There is no payment for playing however if you bring cds along on the night the indie club will buy some to add to the mix of cds available on the door.

We buy albums for $10, eps for $6 or samplers/demos for $5. Note: CD's need to be presentable i.e.: with a cover and a printed disc. Much of the time the patrons are buying cds on how they look and if they look bad, they won't sell.We will guarantee to buy at least 5 cds regardless if they sell or not on the night..... more if the turnout is good. In order for you to get the most out of the Indie Club, it is important to have your cds in the mix
available on the door.

Pre-sale tickets are available to participating bands for $7 each. Note: Pre-sale tickets are now optional.
At present we are booking the Kings Arms every Monday (mainly new bands)

Looking For Local Music (Chch)

In late November The Physics Room will host Sparkling Duets, a night of couples playing music together, developed by Wellington-based artist Louise Menzies.

Sparkling Duets, Christchurch will happen at the Wunderbar on Saturday 24 November, 8pm, and is looking for couples from Christchurch to be involved. A short set only is required (2 or 3 songs) with original music preferred but covers ok.

The first Sparkling Duets happened in Wellington in 2005 with seven couples performing a series of short musical sets. Many of the performers already played in bands or had a musical background, with Sparkling Duets offering the energies of their relationship a new means for expression. As well as taking the particular qualities and inter-personal dynamics of a romantic couple as a space for performance, Sparkling Duets also responds directly to the local music community, offering new musical combinations from within a group of people who often already know each other or even play together already in other bands. For others it is a chance to perform, possibly for the first time, with the confidence and support of someone close to them.

Sparkling Duets, Christchurch will be the third instalment of this ongoing performance project, following the 2006 New Plymouth edition as part of the Govett-Brewster Art Gallerys performance series Mostly Harmless.
If you are interested in being part of the project or would just like some more information, please contact either:
