Mistletone is thrilled to announce the long awaited return of New Zealand legends The Clean, touring Australia for the first time since 1989.

Back in 1978, The Clean were the seeds of New Zealand punk and the reason for the founding of the mighty Flying Nun label. Their influence resonated around the world with followers such as Yo La Tengo, Sonic Youth and Pavement, and can be heard loud and clear in the new generation of indie bands who have the Dunedin godfathers deeply etched into their DNA. A truly magical band who are as vital as ever, The Clean are finally bringing their perfect pop and droney psychedelic guitar jams to Australia.

Friday, 11 March @ The Corner w/ special guests Sonny & the Sunsets (USA), Gary Olson (USA) and Actor Slash Model. Presented by Triple R and Inpress.
