HHV and Spacific are proud to present the debut Berlin performance by Tom Scott's Avantdale Bowling Club project.

Over the course of two albums, Avantdale Bowling Club (2018) and Trees (2022), Tom has worked with musicians and producers in New Zealand to craft a vivid intermingling of jazz, soul, hip-hop and electronica. Written from a working class perspective at the bottom of the globe, Scott’s songs explore the day to day realities of life lived on the margins of society.

Sad and celebratory in equal measure, Avantdale Bowling Club has been lauded by NPR, Refuge Worldwide and Radio New Zealand. The debut release won the coveted Album of the Year and best Hip-Hop artist at the Aotearoa Music Awards followed by Independent Music NZ’s Taite Music Prize for best album release. At the end of 2022 the follow-up ‘Trees’ debuted at number 1 on the NZ album charts. 

Raised on jazz, soul, funk and rap, Scott has honed his skills as a rapper, songwriter and bandleader through membership in several cult groups. He first emerged in 2007 with Home Brew, a band that has recently returned to the touring circuit and the top of the NZ charts with an unexpected second album. Scott’s other projects and his label ‘Years Gone By’, ensure that he continues to influence and push boundaries across genres.
