Direct from Rarotonga, Cook Islands, local classic rock trio Nocturnal Habitz arrive in New Zealand New Years Eve for January 2012 Bay of Islands "Summer Daze" tour.

Mark Franklin (acoustic rhythm guitar/vocals), Albie Marsh (acoustic lead guitar/vocals) and Rio Taripo (percussion/vocals) formed the band in early 2009 and are currently resident at Trader Jacks Bar and Restaurant, Cafe Salsa and Whatever Bar in Rarotonga.

Nocturnal Habitz play in an acoustic format with a distinct combination of rhythm, lead and bass guitar lines complemented by Rio's unique conga style. All three have a different voice range that contributes to a variety of strong vocal harmonies. The result is a tight, fat, warm balanced sound.

The trio perform their own interpretation of a wide variety of well known classic hits with a pacific island kiwiana theme of sun, sand, beaches, holidays and fun. There are some interesting surprises in the repertoire. In particular look out for the Pink Floyd renditions.
