Kiwi four-piece Mako Road have fast become one of New Zealand’s favourite bands - their recently released debut album ‘Stranger Days’ brilliantly captures the band’s epic indie-rock grooves and psych-surf sounds, and cements the band’s reputation as the most exciting independent act on the horizon. The album includes hit singles ‘Surfing On Mars’, ‘Helicopter’, ‘Don’t Keep Me Waiting’ and ‘Stranger Days’, all of which have been riding waves of popularity across sales, radio and streaming charts.
Hailing from Christchurch, the festival favourites have translated their hazy summer psych grooves into an explosive live set, resulting in multiple sold-out Australasian tours. Recently nominated for Best Rock Act in NZ’s Aotearoa Music Awards, their music has made regular appearances at the pointy end of the independent music charts with multiple Gold and Platinum certifications.
Fans have eagerly dived in on streaming sites, with over 90M streams, 3M YouTube views, and 36k Instagram followers.
