This historic tour marks 30 years since the release of their seminal 1996 self-titled album. Today, the band is re-energised with founding members Eric Wilson and Bud Gaugh joined by Jakob Nowell, who carries forward his late father Bradley Nowell’s legacy. Following a massive debut at Coachella 2024, the trio is ready to deliver a high-energy set that honours their roots while showcasing a new creative fire.
Fans can expect a setlist packed with timeless hits like "Santeria," "What I Got," and "Wrong Way," alongside fresh material such as "Ensenada." This is a monumental moment for New Zealand music fans who have waited decades to see the Long Beach legends live on stage.
