17th September marks the release of Shocking Pinks' (aka Nick Harte)’s self-titled debut album. Essentially a remastered merging of Nick’s two previous albums - originally released on legendary New Zealand label Flying Nun - the reworking has produced a record that is a more concise statement, and one that DFA are proud to be putting out worldwide. Brought up in the sparsely populated South Island New Zealand, Nick was rooted into the emerging local music scene including seminal bands like The Bats and The Verlaines. His teenage years were soundtracked by these local heroes, but redefined forever when his mother bought him a copy of My Bloody Valentine’s ‘Loveless’. It was the beginning of a love affair with music that has seen Nick write and release 3 albums (one with a band, the other two on his own), as well as drumming on the forthcoming album from Sub Pop band The Brunettes.
