Opossom New Zealand trio OPOSSOM come to London for their first shows outside their native country in April. From simple origins on a bandcamp page, OPOSSOM recently featured on Pitchfork as “pysch-pop noisemakers” whose “playful, tunnel-vision guitars should remind you of Tame Impala”. Songwriter and producer behind the band is Kody Nielson. Vocalist for the Mint Chicks, contemporary flag-bearers for the legendary kiwi indie Flying Nun, he began recording these tracks after his brother Ruban left town to start Unknown Mortal Orchestra. Kody brings OPOSSOM out into the world having just completed a tour moonlighting on drums in UMO. Three scuzz pop tunes now sit enticingly on bandcamp with the promise soon of an album entitled Electric Hawaii. And chanteuse turned multi-instrumentalist Bic Runga and Mint Chicks bassist Michael Logie join Kody to bring the OPOSSOM songs to the stage in London.
