Don McGlashan Announces Second Auckland Show After 22 Sold-out Shows
Don McGlashan has sold out 22 shows across the country. Newly announced is a second Auckland show, as well as the rescheduled dates for Whangarei, Matakana and Auckland.
It's been a big month for Don McGlashan; following the APRA AMCOS announcement to honour and celebrate McGlashan when he is inducted into the New Zealand Music Hall of Fame at the 2023 APRA Silver Scroll Awards in October, a 22-date sold-out tour around Aotearoa… and then he got Covid!

Don’s latest album, Bright November Morning quickly sold out completely after its 2022 release. A fancy vinyl reissue in translucent red and cassette has just landed in stores so best not to dilly dally this time round. A limited quantity will be available at shows.
As McGlashan’s fourth solo album and first #1 record, Bright November Morning is an essential addition to his remarkable output. It has all the glittering McGlashan touches in place: from the detail-perfect narratives of local life (the neighbours looking in when we take the curtains down, swimming and seeing Russian container ships on the horizon) to the strummy melodicism with detours into something noisier, and on to those welcome and welcoming choruses. The album was recorded in Lyttelton, Auckland and Vancouver, and is full of inspired playing from Shayne P Carter (Straitjacket Fits, Dimmer), Chris O’Connor (SJD, Phoenix Foundation) and James Duncan (SJD, Dimmer).
