BONJAH Announce Second & Final Farewell Show

Having quickly sold out their final farewell show at their spiritual home of The Corner Hotel, Melbourne musical treasure BONJAH have now added a second farewell show set to take place at the Prince Bandroom on Thursday, 23rd June.

Joining the lads for what will be their second-last appearance on a live stage ever will be good friends Georgia Mae, Al Parkinson, and The Babes. Tickets are sure to sell out fast so make sure you get yours now (check below for details).

BONJAH first assembled in New Zealand in 2006 and shortly after booked one-way tickets to Melbourne. Over the next 10 years, they sold thousands of records, sold out shows around the world, and played major festivals, all independently.

“After almost 10 years to the day since we set foot in Australia, we are officially hanging up the boots and calling time on the band,” the band said in a statement. “We want to say a heartfelt and sincere thank you to everyone that has bought an album, come to a show or supported us in anyway.”

“It truly has been an amazing ride and something we will always look back on with incredible memories. We devoted our lives whole-heartedly to our music and made so many life long friendships along the way.”

“A special mention to our families and partners for being so supportive of us pursuing our dreams as young Kiwis. Keeping the band together is simply not possible due to a beautiful thing called life happening. We are all still brothers & the closest of friends.”

“We never wanted to be a band playing RSLs, thinking of the glory days. It feels right ending things on our terms with one final show at our spiritual home.”
