Set to ramp up the stakes and take over all of June and a tiny little bit of the end of May*. This first line-up announcement has everything you could set your hearts on and more, and is happening across some of Tāmaki Makaurau’s most beloved venues. Strange Universe: Winter features the most welcome return of retrofuturist pop heroes Stereolab, Welsh chanteuse and producer extraordinaire Cate Le Bon, and the Fragile World album release show from brooding babes The Veils, all taking the stage at the mighty Powerstation. Hollywood Avondale plays host to droll indie darlings Dry Cleaning, while Double Whammy sets the scene for Japan’s psychedelic legends Acid Mothers Temple and one of the great American singer-songwriters Cass McCombs and his band. Finally, we’re adding two new venues to our list this time around, with the bilingual bossa nova of Mei Semones at the Tuning Fork, and breathtaking Warp Records favourite Kelly Moran at the exquisite Kahui St David’s. “Putting on shows is really easy, so we decided to do heaps of them all at once” - Matthew Crawley, Executive Director - Strange News Touring The combined daydream of promoter pals Banished Music and Strange News, Strange Universe is the show series banner designed to celebrate the city’s brilliant venues, and give us all a little something to look forward to. The full line-up for this wintry Auckland fun-fest is coming soon, and we’ve got news for our Wellington pals shortly, but this first drop should be enough to make you wish that mittens season would hurry up and get here. It’s going to be brrrr-illiant. THE VEILS - SAT 27 JUNE - POWERSTATION Following the critically acclaimed release of Asphodels in 2025, local heroes The Veils return with a bold and invigorated new album, Fragile World. Released June 19 on V2 Records, the album marks a striking shift in tone and energy for the band, with fearless leader Finn Andrews reflecting on his tendency to make each album as a rebellion against his last. Recorded live to tape at Roundhead by Paddy Hill, with production by Tom Healy (Tiny Ruins, The Chills), Fragile World captures The Veils in an urgent and instinctive mode. With its immediacy, intensity, and emotional clarity, Fragile World stands as one of The Veils’ most compelling releases to date, and is the perfect note to go out on for Strange Universe: Winter. *Yes, we know May isn’t in winter, but what were we supposed to do, say no to Cass McCombs? - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/auckland/strange-universe-the-veils-fragile-world-album-release-with-jazmine-mary/200029855325311 - **Event Categories**: music, entertainment, festivals - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 31 ## Ticket Details ## Event venue details - **city**: Auckland - **state**: AU - **country**: New Zealand - **location**: Powerstation - **lat**: -36.86617 - **long**: 174.76131 - **full address**: Powerstation, 33 Mount Eden Rd, Grafton, Auckland 1023, New Zealand, Auckland ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Strange Universe: The Veils - Fragile World Album Release with Jazmine Mary - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/02f9c64c0edf619acfefcc411c7659b57c288411ef74db36ac65e62d517f797b-rimg-w1200-h527-dc8a6395-gmir?v=1781968937 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Strange Universe: The Veils - Fragile World Album Release with Jazmine Mary being held? - **A:** Strange Universe: The Veils - Fragile World Album Release with Jazmine Mary takes place on Sat, 27 Jun, 2026 at 08:00 pm to Sat, 27 Jun, 2026 at 08:00 pm at Powerstation, 33 Mount Eden Rd, Grafton, Auckland 1023, New Zealand, Auckland. - **Q**: Who is organizing Strange Universe: The Veils - Fragile World Album Release with Jazmine Mary? - **A:** Strange Universe: The Veils - Fragile World Album Release with Jazmine Mary is organized by Strange News Touring. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
