Soulful Australian musician Matt Corby is set to perform in Tauranga, joining American singer songwriter Ben Harper on his 2020 New Zealand Tour.
It has been announced today that Corby had been added to the line-up as support act for Harper, a three-time Grammy Award winner and seven-time nominee, and his band The Innocent Criminals in February. The legendary US singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist opens their tour in New Plymouth on February 21, 2020 before performing in Auckland, Queenstown and Napier before closing with a show at Mount Maunganui's Mount Park on February 29.
Neptune entertainment promoters Mitch Lowe, Pato Alvarez and Toby Burrows say Corby is natural fit for the tour.
"The line-up varies in different cities. We are excited to also feature some of New Zealand's leading bands and acoustic artists to open the day. Ben and Matt will be co-headlining the show with full sets, so we've made sure they have the time to play both classic and newer material for the fans," Alvarez said.
