    Thalia Zedek (USA) and Ned Collette (AUS) | Vogelmorn Upstairs

    • 20 May 2025
    • Vogelmorn Community Group
    • STRANGE NEWS & HOME ALONE MUSIC PRESENT THALIA ZEDEK & NED COLLETTE NEW ZEALAND TOUR - JUNE 2025 Wednesday 18 June - Auckland Unitarian Church, Auckland Thursday 19 June - Vogelmorn Upstairs, Wellington Friday 20 June (Ned Collette only) - Lyttelton Coffee Co, Lyttelton “For those that don’t know, Zedek has been one of the most compelling players and singers of the last quarter-century of American music” - The Quietus “...Collette turns folk music into something uncanny and gorgeous” - Aquarium Drunkard Auckland’s Strange News Touring have teamed up with Wellington record label and collective Home Alone Music to announce two very special shows this June featuring two incredible artists, Thalia Zedek and Ned Collette. A true icon of alternative music, Thalia Zedek has been part of some of underground independent music’s fiercest and finest moments, including Live Skull and Uzi in the 1980s, and noisy 90s indie favourites Come. Since then, Thalia has become a mainstay on legendary Chicago label Thrill Jockey (Trans Am, Rose City Band) with her brilliant Thalia Zedek Band output. As her label tells it, “Her ability to deliver raw emotions through her vivid stories of loss and hope, strife and triumph is unmatched”. New album The Boat Outside Your Window arrives next month, with new singles Tsunami and Naming Names suggesting this record is set to turn heads and destroy worlds. Zedek has never shied away from mining some seriously desperate emotional terrain - Pitchfork While these days he calls Berlin home, Ned Collette is both an Aussie lad and card-carrying Kiwi. Ned’s early years were spent playing experimental music in the underground venues of Wellington and Melbourne, before he headed off into the wild yonder to seek fame and fortune, or at least some amazing adventures. Seven albums in, his latest record Our Other History features hometown pals Leah Senior, Jim White (Dirty Three), Chris Abrahams (The Necks), and more. “...as rewarding a listening experience as I’ve come across in recent times” – Will Oldham on Ned Collette’s album Our Other History This marks the first time Thalia will have ever graced our shores, and it’s a very overdue return visit for Ned. These shows will be absolutely unmissable, so best not miss them, eh? NOTE: South Island Ned-heads will get their fix too, with Ned Collette performing solo at Lyttelton Coffee Co on June 20!
