Doors: 8PM / Show: 9PM / 21+

Earth Tongue is a heavy psych rock two-piece from Wellington, New Zealand. Guitarist Gussie Larkin is a master of the fuzz-smothered riff, and along with Ezra Simons' off-kilter drumming, they've been sending punters into transcendental states since their emergence in 2016. Their debut album 'Floating Being' (Stolen Body Records, 2019) quickly became an underground hit, seeing them embark on multiple tours across Australasia and Europe in the years since its release. Along the way they've picked up high praise from BBC Radio6, Bandcamp and headbangers all over the world.

After touring with American multi-instrumentalist Ty Segall, the duo caught the attention of iconic Los Angeles based rock 'n' roll label In The Red Records - an imprint that has released albums from the likes of Thee Oh Sees, Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, Wand and Ty Segall himself. In The Red promptly signed them, and released their second album Great Haunting in June 2024. Written during the pandemic lockdown era while holed up binging on 1970's and 80's horror movies, the nine-track album is a doom-soaked overload --- conjuring vast sonics from just guitar, drums and yowls.

Earth Tongue have hit the road time and time again, playing over 50 shows throughout Europe and the UK in 2024 and sharing stages with the likes of Queens of the Stone Age, IDLES, Ty Segall, Acid King, Brant Bjork and Kikagaku Moyo. Earth Tongue's live show is a powerful, cult-like experience - the perfect mix of throw-your-horns-up heavy, and can't-stop-listening catchy. Their third studio album Dungeon Vision was produced by Ty Segall and released on In The Red Records in February 2026.
