The skies will darken over the South Island as Hamilton instrumental overlords Sora Shima briefly descend from their shoegaze-alt-rock cloud island in Feburary.

The post-rock four-piece will touch down for three shows before returning to the mothership/Hamiltron for shield regeneration and snacks..

For their first trip beyond the Cook Strait, Sora Shima will combine the power of their three EPs, rarities compilation and imminent album to form an unstoppable protector of the far universe, a bit like Captain Planet. But more like Voltron.

Note: The Dux De Lux (Christchurch) set will be slightly more more "atmospheric" oriented while the El Santo (Lyttleton) set the following night will be more "rock" styled. Attend both evenings for the full sonic experience.

Support from Christchurch indie-rockers T54.
