Celebrating 25 years of making music as Sola Rosa, Andrew Spraggon, the force behind one of Aotearoa’s most enduring musical projects, returns with his eighth studio album In The Mids, due for release on Friday 10 April. To mark the upcoming release, Sola Rosa returns to the touring circuit with the In The Mids Album Release Tour, taking place throughout New Zealand in May and June.
Presenting both new material and longstanding favourites, the live show has evolved alongside the music itself, incorporating a newly developed visual and lighting design that reshapes how the songs are experienced. It’s a presentation that marks a clear shift for Sola Rosa, offering a live context unlike anything the project has explored previously.
In The Mids is a ten-track body of work featuring seven collaborations with vocalists from Australia and Aotearoa. The album marks a creative shift for Sola Rosa, reflecting a renewed joy in studio-based production and an evolving set of influences.
