WHO SHOT SCOTT and JUJULIPPS present: WELCOME 2 THE BLENDER
Friday 11 Oct at Ding Dong Lounge, Tamaki Makaurau/Auckland
‘WELCOME 2 THE BLENDER!’ is a joint live-show extravaganza presented by Tāmaki Makaurau based musicians WHO SHOT SCOTT and Jujulipps.
Currently two of the most explosive artists brewing in the Aotearoa alternative hip hop scene, the pair have spent the past few years individually electrifying audiences around Australasia, and are now set to merge their two separate, but equally chaotic worlds into a frankenstein creation of absolute madness. Both being honoured as ‘artists tipped to take over’ by Rolling Stone, this first-of-its-kind experience we will see these two phenoms going back-to-back, intermittently performing banger after banger, followed by bombastic DJ performances. Speaking on the show, the artists say:
Jujulipps: I believe the art of performance is a massive energy exchange and that's exactly why I’m really excited for this show. To be able to break that barrier between artist and audience, a narrative that prioritises performing alongside and with the audience instead of for them is something we’re wanting to push. Connecting club culture, rave culture and stage performance into one blender.
WSS: I feel so strongly that live music is supposed to be shared, interacted with, and moulded in real time. I want people to feel valued and embrace that they are part of the art we’re celebrating, because in a very real way, they are. How cool would it be to push this message for the future? - No more gatekeeping, no more egos, no more pseudo-superstars. We are you, you are us, now let’s shake s**t up together!
In a music genre notorious for competition and braggadocio, a live experience of this kind - embracing community and oneness by two of the most exciting artists in the country is sure to be a pivotal moment for the culture. The two SRN award winners will be electrifying legendary punk-rock dive bar Ding Dong Lounge on the 11th of October, accompanied by Ray Leslie on support and the legendary DJ Hyan behind the decks.
If being a part of the history books just so happens to be your cup of tea, make sure not to miss this one!
