Shapeshifter have been heralded as a musical phenomenon for their ground breaking live shows, and have received widespread critical and commercial acclaim for their recorded work. In 2006 they were awarded the New Zealand bnet music awards for Best Live Act, Song of the Year for “Bring Change” and Album of the Year for Soulstice. Shapeshifter are New Zealand’s top drum and bass band and favourite live act.

They have toured Australia countless times, including as part of the Big Day Out and Parklife. Shapeshifter’s sound has evolved to transcend genre definition, taking elements from jazz, latin, reggae, soul, rock, hip hop and electronica, and blending them live, into a truly diverse and overwhelming dancefloor experience.
