23.04, Ripship, Art Cafe Kalambur

Ripship are a sci-fi psych-rock duo, now based in Melbourne, Australia, who since 2019 have been questing to become the loudest two-piece band in the Southern Hemisphere. With a room-shaking, battle-tested live performance, Ripship have headlined multiple nation-wide tours across New Zealand, and have opened for rock royalty such as Jack White and Osees.

Every Ripship song is a unique trip: sugary hooks wax and wane to reveal wonky polyrhythmic grooves, guitar tones that growl and shimmer, and lyrics that loop in infinite recursion, spelling omens for the end of the world.

Don’t miss Ripship on this debut international tour, as they take their bizzare sonic concoction to stages across Europe for the first time.
