It will become available on February 27, 2015 via Massive Entertainment/Universal Music NZ. If you want a sneak peek, you’re in luck. Have a listen to “Special” above (available worldwide on iTunes) and check out the track, “So High“, here. We can’t wait to hear the album in its entirety! What about you?
We got the chance to chat with our newest favorite band, Six60. The New Zealand band are a big deal back in their home country and soon enough that will happen for them here in the states. Six60 geniusly mixes rock, dubstep, soul and reggae into their music and the outcome is glorious.
Enjoy the interview with these down to earth guys and be sure to check out some of their tracks (“Forever“, “Run For It“, and “Don’t Forget Your Roots” are favorites of ours!). If you’re already a fan, props to you for being ahead of the game. Watch the guys talk about who they would kidnap for a day, what they wouldn’t do for any amount of money and more in the interview above!
If you weren’t able to catch New Zealand band, Six60 last year on their first US tour dates then you are in luck. The guys are coming back this month to play a few dates in San Francisco (3/9), Los Angeles (3/10), Austin (3/12-3/17 for SXSW!) and New York City (3/24). They even have a couple of dates in Canada (3/19 – 3/23). If you were able to catch them last time, then I’m sure you’re ready for a repeat performance.
Six60 makes ground breaking music and I can’t wait for them to catch on in the states. Their live show is incredible and like any good show you leave wanting more. So check out all the dates here and get your tickets!
