AUCKLAND, NZ (OCTOBER 2024) – Today 2 x Grammy Winner Lauren Daigle announces Melbourne Band Tekoa as the support act for her Christchurch and Auckland shows this November. Produced by Live Nation, Lauren Daigle is bringing The Kaleidoscope Tour to New Zealand.

Tekoa will be joining Daigle for her first shows down under in nearly five years. Tekoa is Melbourne band Rory McKenna and Samuel Adebajo, uniquely delivering a contemplative, energetic and soul-infused offering to the Christian & Gospel genre. Independently amassing over 80 million global streams, Tekoa are earning their place as a global Christian group to watch. Following the success of their debut EP, Hymns + Disparity, and collaborations with significant Christian artists such as Mark Barlow and Antoine Bradford. Tekoa, along with their live band, are supporting Lauren Daigle across all of her Australia and New Zealand tour dates this November.

The Kaleidoscope Nights Tour kicks off in Auckland, New Zealand on 4 November, and then stops in Christchurch, New Zealand on Wednesday 6 November.

The Kaleidoscope Nights Tour first began in September 2023, following the release of Daigle’s GRAMMY Nominated self-titled album. Due to popular demand and sold-out performances across the country, the tour has been extended through 2024 including dates in Europe and a summer amphitheater run dubbed The Kaleidoscope Nights Tour. The show features many of Daigle’s #1s including her groundbreaking 6x Platinum smash “You Say,” 2x Platinum hit “Rescue,” “Look Up Child,” and her latest Gold certified No.1 and GRAMMY Nominated “Thank God I Do.”
