ANTHONIE TONNON

Anthonie Tonnon is announcing a tour of Aotearoa in the new year with his Leave Love Out Of This band

The tour will take place over the long summer, and see Tonnon and band bring their live show, which features electronic and organic instruments and a stunning light show, to a new set of centres around the motu, playing Palmerston North, Tauranga, New Plymouth, Hamilton, Waiheke Island, Mosgiel and Queenstown. The tour is the first since Tonnon’s album, Leave Love Out Of This won the 2022 Taite Music Prize this May, just after a five date tour of the main centres. In the months since, Tonnon was also nominated for the APRA Silver Scroll for ‘Peacetime Orders’- his fifth top 20 nomination since 2015’s ‘Water Underground.’

Of the tour, Tonnon says: “We were lucky to get to do a special tour around the album release despite the pandemic, but by the end of it, we felt we were just getting started. This is a chance for the full band and I to take a show we’re really proud of to more people around Aotearoa. It will also be a chance to test
