LOOKING FOR ALASKA
" ...the music they make is, frankly, phenomenal: Soaring acoustic ballads driven by Gott's instrumental deftness and Maynard's powerful, soaring delivery. One part folk, two parts country, two parts soul."
Mike Mather, Stuff NZ
Like two weary vagabonds hitch-hiking along the open road with nothing but a guitar and a suitcase of songs and wayward memories, folk-pop duo Looking For Alaska are ready to set the music scene alight.
Members Aaron Gott and Amy Maynard offer up a sound rooted in country-style guitar and soaring harmonies woven together at their very fiber, intensified by their on-stage chemistry. The duo's familiarity, closeness and authenticity is fueled by their real-life romance, creating a magnetic performance style that captivates their audience time and time again, and has seen them open for the likes of Fly My Pretties, Herbs and Tiny Ruins, and as a featured act at the Canterbury Folk Festival.
