Stillwater Lines Announces ‘Riverlights’ EP + Yellow Sessions Tour
Stillwater Lines, the Indie Rock artist from Hamilton, New Zealand, has announced the release of the Riverlights EP, available on CD, Vinyl, and streaming platforms today.
“These songs are part of a larger body that have documented different seasons of my life sung with the help of session singers who have taken my place on the vocal front, allowing me to focus on the music and enjoy life a bit. I can’t wait for you to get the first taste of what God and I have been working on for the last few years. It’s been an interesting season to experience. There will be time for hooplah and the things later in the year for Yellow. For now, this is our little secret” – Stillwater Lines
The six tracks that feature on the Riverlights EP will join an additional ten songs on his debut album Yellow (set for release in January 2027), and will be previewed during The Yellow Sessions Tour in New Zealand later this month.
The sessions for Yellow were designed as a way to understand the events of Brodie’s past in order to move forward into his future while recovering from a near-fatal car crash in a cabin in Te Aroha, New Zealand. Brodie set about using his guitar, voice, and MIDI Keyboard to use music as a way to put his heart back together (and later adding other instruments and guest vocalists to complete the project). The resulting album called Yellow is also out today on streaming sites, CD, and Vinyl.
In the Yellow Sessions Tour, Brodie will share the real-life stories behind the songs that were created or revisited in this turbulent season of life using only his voice and his guitar to bring you into the cabin with him in what Brodie promises to be an intimate evening of stories and songs about faith, hope, recovery, and joy through all seasons of life (even when we don’t understand the season that we are in).
Starting in Napier later this month, Brodie will play across the country through to early December on what will be his first concert tour as a solo artist, with an extensive South Island run of shows in October and first time visits to Rotorua, Taupo, Gisborne, Palmerston North, and the Kapiti Coast along with return visits to cities that Brodie has not performed in for some time. Bay of Plenty dates are also planned with more information to follow shortly.
