Wellington’s Love Party is a punk band that only sings love songs. Led by Kate Yesberg (vocals/bass) and Dayle Jellyman (vocals/guitar), their fuzzy power-pop feels like a children’s birthday party for adults. Energetic, mischievous and down-to-earth, Love Party combine tasty guitar figures and duo vocals with driving drums and irresistible bass lines. The live show is not to be missed. With Rick Cranson on drums, it’s loud, raw and features the biggest hair throws you’ve ever seen.

Married for a decade before they started the band, Kate and Dayle bring an infectious chemistry to their songcraft. Recorded at Dr Lee Prebble’s Surgery studio with Cory Champion on drums, their debut album WOW! is a timestamped document of everything they have learned about love in its many forms, from the romantic to the ridiculous to the universal.

"If the B-52’s, Devo and Josh Homme (Queens of the Stone Age) created a supergroup, Love Party would be it. "
