Neil Robinson

Neil Robinson was formed in the honour of a great man, Neil Robinson. With the ambition of translating the quirky coolness of Neil into musical form, these three skinny young men from Christchurch have been setting young hearts and minds alight with their cheeky, delightful tunes.

Critics have rained down words of praise such as, 'Yeah, they were alright', 'A decent way to spend $5 and your Saturday night', and 'Are those impressive packages actually real?'. Songs such as 'The Epic Battles of Jude and his Monkey' are sure to make Neil Robinson your new favourite
band and the feel-good hit of the summer.

The Enright House

The Enright House is probably something of chimera in terms of sound: instead of being
one third lion, one third she-goat, and one third serpent, however, we are probably more one part indie-pop, one rather large part post-rock and one rather not-so-large part electronica.

The press have described their sound as anything from "pop as pop should be" to
"skittery percussion, ethereal drones with metallic resonances, and disturbingly atmospheric sounds...".

Think Death Cab For Cutie meets Mogwai.
Sigur Ros meets Pinback.
Philip Glass meets a distortion pedal.
Poetry meets numbers.
Up meets down.
Light meets the drain-pipe.
