KORA Tickets

New Zealand's hottest export of 2008, Kora are a five-piece band made up of four Maori brothers and their adopted musical sibling, and are currently destroying the charts in their homeland on a scale not seen since Fat Freddy's Drop emerged.

Melding together influences from across the musical spectrum, including dub, funk, breakbeat, rock and blues, the band are renowned for their phenomenal live performances, often described as The Prodigy meets Bob Marley and the Wailers, where solid vocal harmonies ride a powerhouse rhythm section, creating a sonic boom that can be heard as far away as Fiji.

Hailing from Aotearoa, the four Kora brothers are Laughton on vocals, guitar and keys, Francis on bass and vocals, Stuart on guitar and vocals, and Brad on drums, alongside the only unrelated member Dan MacGruer on keys and bass.
