Biography
Started life as Christchurch-based teen instrumental duo The Shocking and Stunning Statement, eventually relocated to Wellington and dropped the ‘Statement‘. The majority of their activity came during the early 2010’s – 6 EPs and a couple singles, before the duo re-appeared in 2019 with their self-titled debut album, featuring a mix of re-recorded older tracks and new material.
Both Jack Hooker (guitar and electronics) and Samuel Lovrich-FitzPatrick (drums) are talented musicians, and their music is hugely emotive and powerful – the electronic flourishes expand their palette substantially.
