Local pioneers of big instrumental rock, Kerretta, have announced they will play two New Zealand shows before heading off for an extensive tour of Europe in February/March of 2012. Kerretta will play Wellington’s Mighty Mighty on January 21st and Auckland’s Kings Arms Tavern on January 28th. The band will be playing songs from their new sophomore album Saansilo.

Along with the two New Zealand dates Kerretta will head over to Europe to showcase their big brash sound to audiences in Germany, France, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia, Austria, Belgium, Croatia and The Netherlands, playing 23 dates across the continent.

2011 saw Kerretta release the follow-up to their critically praised debut album Vilayer. The Auckland based trio have previously been nominated for the Taite Music Prize in 2010 and have built a strong following across New Zealand, Australia and Europe.
