Some of New Zealand’s biggest musicians came together last night to raise money for those affected by Cyclone Gabrielle and their efforts did not go to waste.
Taking to social media, concert-goers shared moments from the sold-out show at Christchurch’s Town Hall which included performances from Lorde, Neil Finn, Tiki Taane as well as other acts who were already scheduled to be in the Garden City for Electric Avenue today.
Tiki Taane took to Instagram, posting clips of some of the acts on his story. From L.A.B. to Lee Matthews, the stage was electric and the crowd returned that energy in leaps and bounds.
In a statement released earlier this week alongside the announcement of the last-minute relief concert, organisers acknowledged the devastation suffered by communities in Tairāwhiti, Hawke’s Bay, Northland and the West Coast, saying the impacts “will be felt for years to come”.
