About this concert
Shapeshifter is back on tour celebrating 25 Years!
The five-strong lineup of PDigsss (vocals), Sam Trevethick (guitar/synths/sampler), Dan McGruer (synths/sampler), Nick Robinson (bass/synths) and Darren Mathiassen (drums) have created their very own heavy soul; a stadium-sized sound which adds layers of drum & bass, jazz, funk, rock and electronica to solid bass culture foundations. Originally hailing from Christchurch in Aotearoa New Zealand, the future-shocked soul outfit’s music is crafted by a living, breathing band of musicians, with all the form-changing sonic possibilities live instrumentation offers.
“The essence of Shapeshifter is that on stage we create our music fully live. No click tracks, no sequencers. Just humans and instruments. Samples and drums. We communicate in a different way to the dancefloor. ” – Sam Trevethick.

Awesome show! These guys never disappoint. Only gave 4 and a 1/2 cause I think the venue didn’t really capture their full sound. I’ve seen these guys play outside venues and I think that’s when they are at their best!
