A NIGHT OF ROCK // THE PEOPLE // SHALLOW DIVE – 29TH NOV!

The People
Based in the Hibiscus Coast, The People are a vibrant group of 15 to 17-year-olds dedicated to rocking out. With Tui on vocals, Liam on lead guitar, Jake on rhythm guitar, Jess on bass, and Caleb on drums, they blend classic rock covers with their own original tunes. Since forming in 2022 and hitting the stage in early 2023, The People have quickly made waves, reaching the semi-finals in the SUSO competition and being the only under-18 band in the Auckland finals of Battle of the Bands. They also showcased their skills in Rockquest, earning 5th place at the first Armageddon talent quest out of 30 finalists. With sold-out shows across Auckland alongside bands like Automatic 80s and Rockstok, The People are excited to keep the energy high and connect with audiences, all while having a blast making music together!

Shallow Dive
Shallow Dive are a 3-piece Alternative Indie Rock band that formed in Auckland, New Zealand in 2024. They are D’Angelo Maclaren (Singer and Bassist), Mitchell Baird (Guitarist), and Isaac Goswami (Drummer). The group began writing music for their participation in the high-school band competition, Rockquest, in which they received the “Best Use Of Electronic Assistance” award in the regional finals. Their musical tastes span from underground 1980s to hard punk rock, coming together to form Shallow Dive’s sound; reminiscent of the 2000s Post-Punk Revival. They will be performing 7 originals–a 30 minute set that dips into both their energetic and up-tempo pieces, and slightly more brooding tracks. Shallow Dive has released 3 of said songs onto their Youtube Music and Spotify pages for streaming–these include, “Undefined,” “Lightless,” and “Something Never Said.” The band has published the music video for the latter mentioned piece, and has garnered over 15k views on Youtube, with “Undefined” due for a music video releasing shortly.
