About this concert
Banished Music is proud to announce a SECOND night of iconic Kiwi music with none other than Elemeno P, joined by special guests DARTZ, live at Double Whammy on March 12, 2025 after the first show sold out in record time.Elemeno P, one of New Zealand’s most beloved rock bands, has defined a generation with their multi-platinum hits and unforgettable live shows. Known for their energy and unmistakable sound, they are true icons of the Kiwi music scene. Fittingly, Double Whammy—just steps from Verona Café, immortalized in their 2003 hit “Verona”— hosts this special event, celebrating the track’s place in Auckland’s cultural history.Joining them on stage are Pōneke pub-punks DARTZ, who have flown the flag for scrappy Aotearoa garage rock since 2019 when frontman Danz yarned his way into an opening slot for The Chats, before realising he might need a band and some songs.A very limited number of tickets are on sale now. Being the first Elemeno P headline show in New Zealand since 2021’s High Fidelity Vinyl Release Tour tickets are expected to sell quickly!This is a rare opportunity to witness a slice of New Zealand music history while celebrating the past and present of local talent in an intimate setting.

Elemeno P Biography
Elemeno P are a New Zealand based band whose sound can be best described as guitar driven, melodic, pop-rock. Their debut album, 'Love and Disrespect' was released on July the 4th, 2003 and produced six hit singles, 'Fast Times In Tahoe,' 'Nirvana,' 'Everyday's A Saturday,' Verona,' 'Claim To Fame,' and 'Urban Getaway'. After entering the New Zealand Charts at number one, it has since gone triple platinum, having sold more than 45,000 copies.
Their second album, 'Trouble in Paradise' (recorded at Melbourne's 'Sing Sing Studios') was produced by Sal Villanueva (Thursday, Taking Back Sunday) and mixed in his New Jersey studio 'Big Blue Meenie'. It was released in New Zealand on October the 24th, 2005 and has so far spawned the singles '11:57', 'Burn', 'You Are', and 'One Left Standing'. The band is also aiming to break into the overseas market, and with this in mind, 'Trouble in Paradise' was released in Australia on April the 8th, 2006.

Dave Gibson (Singer/Songwriter),
Justyn Pilbrow (Songwriter/Guitarist),
