The D4
Between 1998-2006, The D4 took on the world and their run sheet is impressive. They toured relentlessly playing clubs and festivals in the US, UK, Japan, Europe, Australia and New Zealand - these included, SXSW, Glastonbury, Reading, Leeds, Fuji Rock, Pukkelpop and The Big Day Out. On the strength of their live shows and the reception of their debut album, The D4 were lauded by stalwarts of the scene past and present and invited to play and tour alongside legacy heroes and contemporary upstarts including: The New York Dolls, the Dictators, Bo Diddley, the Pretty Things, Iggy and the Stooges, Guitar Wolf, and the Hives.
“One of the greatest Kiwi live bands...” Graham Reid, Elsewhere.
John Peel invited the band to record a Peel Live session that aired on his legendary BBC Radio 1 show and they performed live on late night US TV shows, David Letterman, Jimmy Kimmel, Craig Kilborn and Last Call with Carson Daly.
The D4 are JIMMY / DION / JAKE / BEAVER !

Expect the band to play the classics ‘Rock'n'Roll Motherfucker’, ‘Party’, ‘Come On!’, ‘Get Loose’ ‘What I Want ‘ ‘Ladies Man’ and ‘Sake Bomb’ as part of their high octane, red lining, punk 'n' roll sonic attack!
