SIX60
Quadruple platinum album sales for their self-titled debut SIX60, sold-out national tours, summer festival headline spots, shows and a fanbase all over the world and 6 New Zealand Music Awards. This is the phenomenal rise of one of New Zealand’s favourite bands SIX60. Somewhere within the confines of Dunedin’s 660 Castle Street, five Otago University students began plotting in the summer of 2008. Marlon Gerbes, Matiu Walters, Eli Paewai, Chris Mac and Ji Fraser, picked up instruments, turned on amps, closed the door to keep the noise in and SIX60 came to life. In the 8 years since, the band traversed tens of thousands of miles throughout Australasia, Europe and The USA and transcended the loftiest of expectations placed upon them by their most diehard fans. Careening between roots, soul, pop and dubstep; combining RnB with drum and bass; the band’s unorthodox marrying and mish-mashery between unlikely genres gained them favour throughout New Zealand in record time. Their popularity exploding from Dunedin outwards into the rest of the country, thanks to an enigmatic live show, infectious radio singles and a progressive onslaught of guerrilla promotion via social media. In 2015, much to the delight of SIX60 fans spanning both hemispheres, the group released their second album, which debuted at #1.
