Overview

As part of a 12-date tour to celebrate the release of his new album Successor, Dunedin-by-the-way-of-Auckland songwriter Anthonie Tonnon will stop by Wellington’s Moon.

Tonnon has previously released two EPs, a full-length album and touring under the moniker Tono and the Finance Company, which has so far led him to perform on the acclaimed Daytrotter Sessions in Illinois, open for indie stalwarts Okkervil River and be included in Billboard.com’s list of “New Zealand acts you need to know about.”

Successor will be the first release under his own name. Recorded in various locations around Auckland with band member Jonathan Pearce and his arsenal of analogue equipment, the album is spearheaded by Tonnon’s trademark wit and features a lyrical style based around long-form journalism.

For his Wellington show he will be joined by his suitably named backing band The Successors, as well as Teeth - the side project of The Phoenix Foundation member Luke Buda, and Auckland indie-pop act Fazerdaze.
