Anna Coddington Announces Beams Album Release Tour
Loop are excited to announce Anna Coddington will be heading out on tour to celebrate the release of her new album, Beams . Appearing alongside her band The Appreciations, this run of shows will see Coddington performing tracks from the new album, alongside her acclaimed back catalogue.
Released in late-2020, Beams sees Coddington exploring her place in the world across 10 tracks as a mother, musician, Māori & human being. Combining her indie-sensibilities with a pop-edge, the album will be reimagined live by Coddington & her band, which features Mike Hall (Pluto), Fen Ikner (LIPS) & Jol Mulholland, collectively known as The Appreciations.
Tickets for all shows on sale now, with more info available from Loop.co.nz.
“One of this country’s finest and most consistently interesting songwriters,”
– The Listener
“The ten-track collection will have your jaw dropped and eyes welled up,”
– Under The Radar
The tour kicks off in Coddington’s hometown of Raglan and heads to Mount Maunganui before a special performance at the Civic Club as part of the Auckland Arts Festival. The South Island leg will see shows in Christchurch, Nelson and a solo performance in Picton, before closing the tour in Paekakariki & Wellington.
Produced by APRA Silver Scroll-winning duo LIPS, Beams sees Coddington creating her most cohesive piece of work to date – a delightfully upbeat piece of indie-pop, with tinges of self-reflection & sorrow across the board. This new live show will incorporate the new album alongside her back-catalogue, all showcasing Coddington’s stunning voice & songwriting ability.
Previous years have seen Coddington perform with the likes of Fly My Pretties, the Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra, the Christchurch Symphony Orchestra, The Blackbird Ensemble & more. She has also co-written with, and produced for other artists, and composed the original music for the TV series ‘Head High’, all while maintaining a robust writing ethic.
