The Bats have been active with the same line-up since New Year’s Eve 1982. They’ve released 9 albums (the 10th is due out in November..pre order now) and have regularly toured in their home country of New Zealand (where they are based) USA, EU, UK and Australia.

Take a look at the video for It’s Not The Same to see some more details of the studio and a glimpse of Dale Cotton who recorded and co-produced with the band.
Love the new site and great to connect. Are the any old live videos of The Bats in the archives?

saw the notice on FB and dutifully followed the link. this is fantastic, and would only be more fantastic [or is that “fantasticer”] if there were a tour stop noted for washington DC or nearby environs. 🙂 thanks for your hard work and your beautiful art.

I’ve heard of fantasmigorical. Fantastic is a reasonably recent addition to our language.
Hope to have some more gigs next year. Possibly could fit a couple in in 2016.
