Considered by many the ‘Godfather of Punk’ Iggy Pop is widely acknowledged as one of THE most dynamic stage performers of all time. He has built a legendary career filled with both critical acclaim and fanatic cult success. This year alone Iggy has performed numerous festival and headline dates across Europe followed by a recent North American tour, he has also just been confirmed for 2026’s Coachella Music Festival.A fearless and legendary rock front man known for his outrageous, unpredictable and physically demanding stage performance, Iggy’s recent set lists have focused on his classic material with songs like ‘T.V. Eye’, ‘Raw Power’, ‘The Passenger’, ‘Lust for Life’ and fan favourite, ‘Real Wild Child’ as well as showcasing songs from his 2023 album ‘Every Loser’.A 2020 recipient of a GRAMMY Lifetime Achievement Award, Iggy’s career spans punk pioneer, pop star and elder statesman, marked by iconic albums, collaborations (notably with David Bowie) as he continues to charge fearlessly at life itself.Igg Pop said; “I am knocked out by the chance to come and rock hard and enjoy the incredible summer in beautiful New Zealand; mountains, lakes, beaches and good times, oh hell yeah! I am bringing the world's greatest rock band and a full bag of everything I know how to do, and the songs I can offer, from hard rock to rock pop.”

Joan Jett and the Blackhearts

Joan Jett grew up during a time when rock ‘n’ roll was off limits to girls and women, but as a teenager, she promptly blew the door to the boys’ club right off its hinges. After forming her band the Blackhearts in 1979, with whom Jett has become a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, she has had eight platinum and gold albums and nine Top 40 singles, including the classics "Bad Reputation," "I Love Rock 'N' Roll," "I Hate Myself For Loving You," and "Crimson and Clover."

With a career that has spanned music, film, television, Broadway, and humanitarianism, Joan Jett remains a potent force and inspiration to generations of fans worldwide. As a producer, she has overseen seminal albums by Bikini Kill, and the Germs' LA punk masterpiece ‘GI.’ Jett and Kenny Laguna (her longtime producer and music partner) co-founded Blackheart Records from the trunk of Kenny’s Cadillac after rejections from no less than 23 labels.

40 years later, Blackheart is a thriving entertainment company producing music, film and television, and continues to champion emerging bands. Joan Jett and the Blackhearts continue touring the globe with headlining shows alongside fellow rock legends like The Who, Green Day, Heart, Foo Fighters and Alanis Morrisette. 'Bad Reputation,' a documentary about Jett's life, premiered to critical acclaim at the 2018 Sundance Film Festival. The award-winning multiplatinum icon most recently released Mindsets, a surprise EP of brand new music. Mindsets is Jett’s latest release since her critically acclaimed album Changeup, the first ever all acoustic album from the rocker.
