Биография

Ripship is a couple of alternative music and science-fiction lovers who met at a local gig in 2018. Eva-Rae McLean (Drums, Vocals) and Callum Lincoln (Guitar, Synth, Vocals) both hail from Auckland, New Zealand, and spent their teenage years in ignorant proximity to each other attending all ages gigs in the Auckland scene’s golden age. These bands have greatly inspired and influenced Ripship’s musical endeavours. A Ripship song always has a psychedelic science-fiction aesthetic; you’ll find them singing about giant robots, cyborg cowboys and the speculative evolution of man. Their sound has been described as shockingly heavy and full for a two-piece; a vocoding synthesiser fills the space a bass player would occupy. Ripship has been described as (among other things): “The Tesla of music” “Like two witches making a brew” “The best goddamn rock band in this hemisphere” “What Auckland needs right now” Follow Ripship on facebook, instagram and bandcamp to keep up to date with releases and gigs.
