When it comes to Shapeshifter, you’re always guaranteed a momentous show, and we’re about to be reacquainted. The Kiwi collective has spent the last six months in a Berlin studio working on an album, while finding the occasional weekend to play a festival like Glastonbury or the Big Chill. A new single is imminent, so we’ll be able to hear how it goes down live alongside all the other ‘Shifter gems.

“The thing that struck me at this gig was the way that Shapeshifter’s tunes develop and evolve,” our Sydney reviewer wrote of their two-hour show back in June 2010. “The band had a flood of adrenaline and serotonin coursing through our veins. Their composition is a beautiful thing to behold, and the surprises therein levelled the dancefloor.” Yes, the live show really is a special beast, so if you haven’t yet experienced it, don’t miss your chance this spring.

Shapeshifter tour dates:
