The Beths\u00a0will bring\u00a0rising local acts Bub and Dateline along for their upcoming Aotearoa tour next month, which includes\u00a0a new and final show at The Turner Centre in Kerikeri on Saturday 28 March. The now eight-date tour will take the Globetrotting local four piece across the country in celebration of their critically acclaimed album Straight Line Was A Lie<\/em>, released last August via American label ANTI-.<\/p>\n

Opening shows in Wellington, Dunedin, Christchurch, Nelson and Auckland (Thursday 26 March only) is Bub, the hook-heavy T\u0101maki Makaurau four-piece fronted by powerhouse vocalist and notorious karaoke-ist Priya Sami, alongside Daniel Barrett (bass), David Harris (drums) and Kat Tomacruz (lead guitar, BVs).<\/p>\n

Dateline - the indie-pop\/rock project of Katie Everingham, returns as a familiar face on The Beths\u2019 stage after opening for the band in the UK and Europe last year.\u00a0Since forming in 2017, Dateline has evolved through multiple iterations, gaining momentum after Everingham\u2019s move to Te Whanganui-a-Tara\/Wellington and the release of their second critically acclaimed album, It\u2019s All Downhill From Here<\/em>.\u00a0Dateline opens The Beths' sold out Auckland headline date at Powerstation\u00a0on Friday 27 March and Kerikeri's\u00a0Turner Centre\u00a0on Saturday 28 March.<\/p>\n

Riding on the success of Straight Line Was A Lie<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0fresh from an extensive period of international touring,\u00a0The Beths continue their global momentum throughout 2026. Womb (NZ) will join the band as support on their upcoming Australian tour this April; followed by a US summer co-headline tour with Spoon and co-headline dates with Beach Bunny. 2026 also sees The Beths appear at major international festivals including Governors Ball (US), Summerfest (US), BottleRock (US), Green River Festival (US), Canela Party (Spain), Into The Great Wide Open (Netherlands), Fuji Rock (Japan) and more. The Beths' inaugural Japanese tour also kicks off this week.<\/p>\n

Next month, The Beths return home in top form, bringing their sharpest, most expansive live show yet. Tickets are selling fast - visit thebeths.com<\/a> for all dates and ticketing information.<\/p>\n
