Evil Tomato ft, Bittercup, Emily Riordan & guests

This is a free gig to showcase some new, up and coming artists.

Evil Tomato comeback gig with very special guests all the way from New Plymouth: Bittercup and Emily Riordan + more acts to be announced.

Evil Tomato are a two piece hard rock band consisting of Aidan O'Loughlin (guitar, vocals) and Brendan O'Loughlin (drums, vocals). You can expect a devastating assault of riffs reminiscent of the 90's grunge era a brutal, yet soulful engagement with the audience at every gig.

Bittercup is intense, dark and unpleasant. Like a good coffee. His debut EP, Negative Space, was descriped by Happy Mag as a "bleak but undeniably endearing collection of alt-rock gems." Bittercup describes it as stripped down Placebo dipped in Nine Inch Nails with a secret Tool fetish.

Emily Riordan plays dreamy, melancholic soft pop influenced by her roots in classical piano and singing with a twist of Lana Del Rey. Her songs, featuring understated instrumentals and mellow, delicate vocals, are inspired by the highs and lows of human connection.
