MERRIN

The countdown begins! As we deck the halls at Merrin HQ, we can't help but get excited about ringing in another year. Our gift to you: spreading joy and cheer throughout 2024! Merry Christmas 🤘🏻🎅🏼🤘🏻

Hey everyone, how are you all doing. It’s always the quiet ones you have to watch as it generally means they are getting into mischief! If you think this may be what’s happening here, you would be right! Left to our own devices we get creative. Great things take time 😉🤘

THANK YOU! Seether, Seether - Shed 6, Wellington AMAZE! Tag yourself 🤘

Whaaaat! 5 years since we supported Seether. What an epic night that was. Were you there???

With May coming to an end, we reflect on the awesome month that it was, with everyone celebrating May Music Month and supporting live music and our amazing venues around the country. We would love to hear about the artists/gigs you supported over the past month both on and off the stage and what may be coming up for you. NZ really is a cool little corner of the world bursting with so much talent and creativity.

For us personally we thank everyone who came along and supported us, along with the team at both Lovelands Wellington and The Cabana in Napier. We cant do what we do without all of you!
Stay safe (and dry) 🤘

We have teased you with some photos now we have a little live action for you Check it out here https://youtube.com/watch?v=bHenjdEWzzs&feature=share

Cheers for the footage Team Lovelands

Hey everyone, we are sure many of you have seen this amazing opportunity Greenstone Entertainment are offering to NZ bands and we would love your support. How awesome would it be for any band to be invited to open for the epic artists these guys bring in each year. If you would like to see MERRIN get up there and do what we do best, we would appreciate you putting us forward along with any other bands you feel would be excited for an opportunity like this.
Have an awesome weekend and thank you for your never ending support

As we reach the halfway mark of New Zealand's Music Month, it's time to start thinking about the next big thing in Kiwi music 🇳🇿

Have you got what it takes to open for Greenstone's 2024 Summer Concert Tour?

This is your chance to share the stage with some of the biggest names in music and show the world what you're made of 🎶

Take inspiration from White Chapel Jak, who were crowd favourites when they've opened the Whitianga Summer Concert in the past, and have gone on to have their own hugely successful tours.

Don't miss out on this incredible opportunity - suggest a band or enter now! 🎸

From our family to yours, Happy Mother's Day to all the Fab mothers out there and all of the dads that step up into the role of being both Mum and Dad. You all rock!
Have an amazing week 💞

We have a few shows lined up and will share details with you very soon, in the meantime we promised you all a pic of Karl with a little less hair than the one posted yesterday 🐵🙈🙉🙊 so here you go ....

Over the past 4 weeks we have been re-introducing the faces of MERRIN, We are still the same people just a little older 😁 We have one more person we would love to share with you all. He is cheeky, mischievous and always smiling no matter what life has thrown at him. Merrin has been his dream from the time he was a young lad sitting in a hospital bed, battling some serious health issues. This guy along with his partner in crime Charlie got together and MERRIN was born. We are grateful for this man, his big heart and passion for all aspects of music. He appears to have got a little hairier since you last saw him, perhaps we can share a photo of him once he has had a shave ;) ......Karl

The voice behind Merrin comes from this strong Wahine. She sees herself as "just one of the bro's" but her stage presence along with her ability to write kick arse lyrics totally compliment the awesomeness we know as MERRIN ..... Charlie

Check out our office for today …. Relay for Life, such an amazing event to support and a cause very important to us all
Let’s do this !

Here we are again, Friday seems to have come around fast this week. As we are prepping for Relay for Life tomorrow, here is yet another of our awesome guys to reintroduce to you all. Our very own Eddie Van Halen... Angelo

Hey everyone, we hope you have all had an epic week and ready for the weekend. This guy was only 15 years old and not a facial hair in sight when he picked up the bass and started jamming with MERRIN...Fast forward 7 years and our youngest member is still here doing what he loves ..... Logan

If you are in Palmerston North next weekend, come on down and see us. We will be doing our bit to support Relay for Life and may have a few surprises in store 😉

Happy Friday everyone. We know it has been a while since you have seen us out and about on stage, and we are excited to show you all what we have been working on....Now for those of you who dont know who MERRIN are, or have forgotten what we all look like 🤔, lets refresh your memory.
First up to kick start your weekend check out this laid back fulla. He may look all cool calm and collected but get him behind those drums and this pocket rocket is full of energy .... Rich

Along with our band practices, there is also a little craziness. Looking forward to playing at Relay for Life in Palmerston North in a few weeks. Hope to see some of you there!
