1 Drop Nation is made up of Derin Thompson (keyboards, backing vocals / Nga Tai Ki Torere), Paerau Hemopo (guitar / Ngāi Tahu, Te Arawa, Ngā Puhi), Burke Goffe (guitar / Ngā Puhi, Te Ātiawa) Marc Hansen (drums), Dru Sione (bass, backing vocals), and Kanei Johnson (lead vocals / Ngāti Porou, Ngāti Kahungunu). The band released their 5-star-reviewed, self-titled debut album in December 2022 – including singles ‘Groove Show’, ‘The Children’ ‘Runaway’ and ‘Good Doctor’ (ZM Locals only, NZOA New Tracks). Since that release, and leading up to the release of this second album MOMENT IN TIME, the group have added some impressive performances to their cv – such as a sold-out headline Christchurch show, Electric Avenue and Ōtautahi 4 Aotearoa. With MOMENT IN TIME now in the world, it’s time to press play and gear up for an epic 1 Drop Nation summer!
