Aotearoa five-piece No Cigar combine psychedelic rock, jangly indie and groove-heavy guitars into warm, endlessly replayable songs built for long drives and packed festival tents alike. Their latest album ‘Under The Surface’, partly written while touring Europe, leans further into expansive melodies and loose, sun-soaked rhythms without losing the band’s sharp storytelling. Thanks to relentless touring and famously energetic live shows, No Cigar have quietly built one of New Zealand’s most devoted indie followings.
