New Zealand's most exciting new act, Drax Project arrive today with their debut, EP “NOON” via 300 Entertainment. The brand-new body of music premiered on Clash where it was deemed, "Delicious pop with a prodigal feel," and proceeds to encourage readers to, "catch 'em now before they explode."

The EP kicks off with their infectious pop hit “Woke Up Late," which has garnered over 8 million Spotify streams to date, and also introduces four additional new songs from the band. The second track, 'Prefer,' is a rhythmically staggering and lavish, which is followed by 'Only Us'; a spacious, synth-heavy track with an infectious beat. The EP’s fourth track, 'Toto,' is transportive and lush while the EP closer, ‘Sidebit’, wraps things up with provocative lyrics, appealing harmonies, and divine production.

Drax Project kicked off a European run of dates in Glasgow a few days back as direct support to Camila Cabello on her sold-out run of #NeverBeTheSameTour around Europe. Camila announced the news that the group would be joining the tour via Twitter.

Reflecting on the EP and the current run of show dates, Drax Project mentioned, "We've been playing most of these songs live for a while now, so it was really fun to finally record them! We hope that comes through on the record and super excited to be sharing them with the world. We totally love the buzz of playing for people, but we're already itching to get back home to the studio and record some more..."

The New Zealand based four piece recently broke Lorde’s record for the fastest selling club show in Auckland history, selling out in three minutes. The announcement follows an impressive 2-year run of sold out venues as both headliners and openers for Ed Sheeran, Lorde, Six60 and SBTRKT.

With ‘Woke Up Late’ starting to take off globally, the recording of a new larger body of work is well underway and set to take Drax Project around the world in 2018.
