One of Australia’s undisputed heavyweight touring acts, The Butterfly Effect are very excited to announce their debut New Zealand shows to align with the release of their latest album FINAL CONVERSATION OF KINGS.

Heading to the country straight off the back of a 24-date Australian tour, the Brisbane four-piece are certainly no strangers to heavy duty performances, …wowing audiences both internationally and at home with their progr…essive, melodic rock sound. Having spent a large part of their musical careers on the road, The Butterfly Effect have constantly pushed themselves, working hard to become one of the most jaw-dropping live bands in Australia.

With three ARIA Gold selling albums under their belt and over 200,000 catalogue sales in Australia, The Butterfly Effect’s third and most recent studio album ‘Final Conversation Of Kings’ will be released in New Zealand through Sony Music on Friday 20th August. ‘Final Conversation Of Kings’ has garnered four and five star reviews throughout Australia, and the first single ‘Window & The Watcher’ is at all media outlets now!
