A dozen or so albums in and his songs like Brighter!, Bum Bum Bum, and Absentee have become timeless earworms, with recent album Interior Live Oak seeing Pitchfork agree that this is an artist “in top form”. This one-off show by McCombs and his killer quartet at Double Whammy marks the first time the man has ever taken the stage in Aotearoa, and we’re absolutely thrilled to have him.
