Red Raven News · Published July 25, 2026

UK Indie Rock icons RAZORLIGHT head to New Zealand for the first time ever to perform headline shows in Auckland and Wellington as part of their 'America' world tour! The band are celebrating the 20th anniversary of their 5x Platinum self-titled album, a landmark release that cemented their place among the defining acts of the early 2000's indie scene.

With era-shaping hits like 'America', 'In The Morning' and 'Before I Fall To Pieces', Razorlight became one of the UK's most successful guitar bands of their generation, delivering three Top 5 albums, multiple Platinum certifications, winning an NME Award, and performing on some of the world's biggest stages.

Razorlight's live shows channel the same hook-laden, post-punk-infused energy that defines their sound, but amplified into something harder, tighter and far more intense.

Their melodic swagger of early-2000s indie, driven by a restless passion makes every track feel like it's about to ignite. Their sets tend to move with a kind of breathless momentum, tight rhythms, bright guitar lines, and delivery that between exposed emotion and a sharp, commanding force. Live, Razorlight animate the entire room.

"Razorlight reminded fans why they won their hearts with a masterful performance featuring astonishing electric guitar riffs and impeccable stage craft yet again from Borrell." – The Upcoming

"The rhythm drove through the room like a heartbeat, and the connection between the band members was electric. Each note and lyric lands with precision and passion." – At The Barrier
