Where’s Jai Release Debut Album Fresh Out Of Air , Followed By A 5-Date Tour North Island Tour
July 21st, 2025
Where’s Jai, a rising pop rock band from Tāmaki Makaurau, have launched their debut album, Fresh Out Of Air.
“Fresh Out Of Air felt like the perfect name for the album. It sounds like Fresh Air but means the exact opposite. It’s the panic of being cut off from something or someone you feel like you need. It’s about messy situationships and getting older and even reflecting on past versions of yourself. It’s a collection of songs we’ve written all throughout our teenage years, and that’s part of the reason it means so much to us”. – Where’s Jai.
The album release is followed by a 5-show North Island tour, and two music videos, one of which is funded by NZ On Air.
Tour dates below:
Hamilton – August 15th @ Last Place Bar
Tauranga – August 16th @ The Jam Factory
Wellington – August 23rd @ San Fran
Whangarei – August 29th @ ONE ONE SIX
Auckland – September 5th @ The Tuning Fork
