Four of Auckland's best Alternative, Rock and Punk acts

Ding Dong Lounge is stoked to be bringing some of their favourite bands Coridian, Melanie, White Noise Mafia and guests Stacked to an all ages audience.

Headliners Coridian are set to release their new single 'Wicked Game' (a cover originally by Chris Isaak) on Friday 7 May, the day before the event. The North Shore 4 piece have released three EPs Eldur, Caldera and Oceanic with the single 'Wicked Game' being released on their yet to be released album Hava.

Midwest Auckland emo four-piece Melanie released their full length album 42 Losers in May 2020 and have been playing a fine selection of gigs and house parties since.

White Noise Mafia join the line up, fresh from recording their upcoming debut EP with Dave Rhodes Productions. Having won the Ding Dong Lounge Bands Competition in 2020, their first single and music video has been provided as a prize for winning the competition and will be out soon.

Kicking off the night are teenage melodic hardcore band Stacked, from the North Shore.

While the show is put on by Ding Dong Lounge, Auckland's Premiere Rock bar on Wyndham St in the city, this event is a collaboration between The Tuning Fork and Ding Dong Lounge, and is taking place at The Tuning Fork on Mahuhu Crescent (connected to Spark Arena) in Parnell.
