MAIN STAGE ARTISTS
BLAKE
Blake's music journey is a testament to passion, resilience, and evolution. She began her career in the UK as a drum and bass vocalist, amassing over 13 million streams and earning a nomination for 'Best Vocalist' at the 2017 DnB Awards. The challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic inspired her transition into Pop, where her knack for crafting catchy hooks without compromising depth and authenticity truly shines.
RITA MAE
An exciting talent emerging on the Auckland music scene, Rita promises a blend of genres and feeling, emotional lyrics combined with alternative pop production, that will have you feeling everything all at once. For real.
SHOOLESS
Shooless brings a sound and finesse that defies the status quo, from soaring rock to delicate jazz, embodying authenticity and sonic exploration. What started with spontaneous jams in a West Auckland storage unit has blossomed into a dynamic musical force, inspired by artists such as Jeff Buckley, King Krule, Patti Smith, Mastadon, Jefferson Airplane, Rage Against the Machine, and PJ Harvey.
CLUB RUBY

RUMPUS MACHINE
Rumpus Machine is a band of teenage brothers and sisters based in Torbay on the North shore of Auckland. They pride themselves in performing top-class covers of the most epic classic rock songs in history – all while writing guitar-based original rock music of their own.
MAYJUN
MAYJUN was formed on a shared realisation that their musical preferences extended beyond the typical genres of their Polynesian upbringings - drawing as much inspiration from Paramore, Green Day & Simple Plan as R&B, Hip-Hop and Soul.

MARMALADE
Tāmaki Makaurau-based Marmalade are a pair of friends who write music in their living room. Swinging somewhere between clean-pop and indie-rock, Marmalade’s soaring vocals and honest lyricism float above a steady musical backbone to create a juicy jar full of sounds.

Growing up listening to Brazilian greats Jorge Ben, Tim Maia and Marcos Valle, Bobby infused his rich musical heritage into Auckland's DJ culture, building a community around his Latin parties and earning himself a reputation as our unofficial Brazilian Music Ambassador.
