OPSHOP Honours Christchurch Earthquake
Victims
Local
Cantabrian band OPSHOP made a heartfelt tribute to
the victims of the 2011 Christchurch on the anniversary of
the disaster
Releasing 185 balloons during their sold
out show at The Groynes as part of the More FM Summer
Vineyard Tour, the crowd took a moment of silence to
honour the lives lost.
The band, who are originally from Christchurch, reflected on where they were when they first found out about the disaster. Coincidently, they were meant to be playing another vineyard show and dedicated themselves to making this show everything that one was meant to be.
OPSHOP played to a sold out crowd at The Groynes, alongside Australian singer/songwriter Missy Higgins, and local legends Che Fu and Aaradhna.
The tour plays its final show at
Auckland’s Turanga Creek
tonight.
