Additional information
Fresh off a run of sold-out shows across Australia and New Zealand, NO CIGAR are gearing up to embark on their biggest tour yet — a highly anticipated sweep across mainland Europe and the UK.
The five-piece from Aotearoa New Zealand have built momentum in recent years, carving out a reputation for electrifying live performances and a fiercely loyal global fanbase. With three acclaimed studio albums under their belt — Under The Surface (2025), The Great Escape (2023) and Bienvenido (2022) — the band have earned widespread support throughout Australasia, the UK, Europe and the US, evolving from grassroots favourites to one of New Zealand’s most exciting exports.
Under The Surface was largely written in Chantilly, just north of Paris, where the band immersed themselves in rehearsing, writing and recording while touring Europe in 2023. The album was later completed back home in New Zealand with producer Connor Jaine, capturing the restless energy and road-tested chemistry that has become synonymous with the band’s sound.
Known for their dynamic, high-intensity shows, this upcoming European and UK run promises the biggest NO CIGAR experience yet — with fan favourites, deep cuts and the possibility of brand-new material making its live debut.
NO CIGAR are Willy Ferrier (lead vocals), Josh Morrice (guitar, backing vocals), Arthur Gillies (guitar, backing vocals), Sam Benson (bass) and Ned Gow (drums).
