There's A Tuesday and Daffodils double-headline for The Tuning Fork's Birthday Series

This birthday series is The Tuning Fork’s annual flagship event and will be held across five nights at the beginning of June, featuring Tiny Ruins and Finn Andrews, Methyl Ethel, Arab Strap, Pax Assadi, Jamaine Ross & Friends, There’s A Tuesday and Daffodils.

Saturday evening June 4 sees two of NZ’s finest indie acts - There’s a Tuesday and Daffodils - going back-to-back.

Hailing from Christchurch, There’s A Tuesday are a loveable group made up of alternating front-women Natalie Hutton and Minnie Robberds, with band members Angus Murray and Joel Becker on drums and guitar. Having gained a solid reputation for their live set, There’s A Tuesday make their audience feel all the feels. They’ve mastered the perfect blend of indie-pop-rock with their beautiful harmonies and soundscapes as seen in their latest singles ‘Bus Stop’ and ‘Baby Blue’, alongside fan favourite hit ‘Amsterdam’ from their debut EP Dance With Me Before We Cry.

Daffodils are one of those bands that everyone thinks they discovered first. Since emerging in 2016, the project of Isaac Keating, Jade Bryham, Louis Graham and Theo Spike Salmon has won hearts and warmed-up stages for international artists Foals and OrvillePeck. Their new EP, STAY THE NIGHT, is set for release on June 17 and features new single ‘How Do You Know?’.

Daffodils and There’s A Tuesday have both just returned from Australia where Daffodils played shows in Sydney and Melbourne supporting The Lazy Eyes; while There’s a Tuesday opened for Benee, whose label they’re also signed to.
