The Peacekeepers (MC P-Digsss & DJ Sambora)

The Peacekeepers in Gisborne! (AKA MC P-Digsss & DJ Sambora)

At this moment Shapeshifter are smashing Europe on a massive 11-date tour celebrating their signing to Hospital Records and worldwide release of "The System is a Vampire". When they return to the fair shores of Aotearoa in November, vocalist P-Digsss and guitarist/keyboard player Sam (a.k.a. DJ Sambora) are taking a little roady over to Gisborne to share the goodness with their DJ project The Peacekeepers (Shapeshifter/Sunshine Sound/Truetone Rec).

Anyone who has seen Peacekeepers live will tell you that it is an unforgettable experience. Deep, twisted, visceral dubstep basslines and stadium-worthy d&b, including exclusive Shapeshifter remixes by some of the top producers in the world, lifted to the highest heights by the fiery, soulful vocals of the one and only P-Digsss. The Peacekeepers' set rivals the best on the international scene. They like to play a 4-hr set, so get ready to be taken on a journey!
