Crosstown Arts presents The Chills with Ibex Clone in collaboration with Goner Records. The Chills are a band from Dunedin, New Zealand fronted by the rare talent of Martin Phillipps. Originally formed in 1980, The Chills had a revolving cast of band members with Phillipps remaining the only constant. His knack for writing fantastic pop songs led to chart hits back home and a cult following around the world. With early releases via the legendary NZ label Flying Nun, The Chillsproduced a number of critically acclaimed recordings such as the single “Pink Frost” (their first hit) from the compilation album ‘Kaleidoscope World’ and “Wet Blanket” from the LP ‘Brave Words’. Joining influential labels Creation and Homestead, they then moved to Warner Brothers imprint Slash and onto the world of majors. |
