The second line-up announcement for Tāmaki Makaurau’s favourite street festival has just dropped, and it’s nothing short of flipping brilliant. Saturday 29 November across Karangahape Road, there’s only one place you should be.
Just announced as joining dozens of mind-boggling acts at The Others Way this year is
none other than Connan Mockasin, making his grand return to Auckland in band format for the first time in 6 years. Also appearing amongst the astounding new array of acts are Brooklyn’s Emily Sprague-fronted band Florist (appearing as a duo); truly iconic Dead Moon founder and Portland rock’n’roll stalwart Toody Cole & Her Band; London club queen and “Goddess of Rhythm” Karen Nyame KG; Melbourne folk & trip-hop favourite Georgia Knight; sought after Pōneke rapper and singer-songwriter Mā; Cory Champion’s boundary-pushing jazz outfit Clear Path Ensemble; Aotearoa Music Award-winner for Best Alternative Artist Jim Nothing; enigmatic rapper jackaltheblackal, Ōtepoti’s big guitar sound darlings Pearly*, and the one-two collaborative punch of local rap hero Brandn Shiraz with sought after producer Caru.
In recent years, the all-ages stage at The Others Way has been one of the most vibrant places to catch the next-big-things, and this year is no exception. Down with the kids this year are Pōneke guitar slingers Dropper featuring Jude Savage (ex-Bleeding Star), Tāmaki based musician, interdisciplinary artist, and extraterrestrial witch VIDA, alternative rock band and “clowns with hand grenades” Capricore, “heavy psych drifters” Crying Ivy, and riot grrrl faves Lipstick Cherry.
The Pitt St Methodist Church stage will be a secondary all-ages space, and includes performances from Tiny Ruins (duo), Shannon Lay (US), and Holly Arrowsmith. A full stage schedule and All Ages final details will be announced in November.
“The festival where everything is awesome” - Chris Schulz, Boiler Room
These phenomenal new names join a truly scorching roster of previously announced acts, including the world dominating majesty of Sharon Van Etten & The Attachment Theory (US), set to headline our brand new main stage.
Also on the menu, Aotearoa’s fabled masters of big noise High Dependency Unit, back to saturate your ears for their first live shows since 2017; Canadian “sonic nonconformist” Saya Gray is headed our way for her debut NZ show; The Phoenix Foundation performing their recently reissued cult classic Pegasus in full; and Zambia’s “Zamrock” legends W.I.T.C.H. are intending to cause havoc, Others Way style. All this and a heck of a lot more.

And, as a reminder, for the first time ever we’re closing down KARANGAHAPE ROAD! Expect the whole dang block between Queen Street and Pitt Street to transform into the party of your dreams, with our main stage landing right near the Rainbow crossing.
You heard it here, folks. We’re shutting down the street, throwing K Road the biggest party you’ve ever seen, and bringing you the wildest line-up in the festival’s history. You don’t wanna miss it.
“Being able to hear such a variety of acts and genres and styles all playing along Karangahape Road’s precinct over one day is something that should never be taken for granted.” - Rolling Stone Australia
