Cop Car is taking a wee break from performances until December, for two reasons:
Recording is finished on our debut album "...You're Better Off With Us". Copies of this album are in the hands of distributors and labels around New Zealand, and we're eagerly awaiting responses from them. Once the nature of distribution of this album has been finalised, a release tour is to be planned for the New Year. Simon will be in the Solomon Islands, working for aid organisation Mahitahi .Cop Car are a three-piece punk group hailing from Wellington, New Zealand. They first leapt onto the stage at the end of 2003, performing their first set at Wellington's Thistle Hall. Since then, they have played a number of energetic and entertaining shows around Wellington and the North Island of New Zealand.
Not content to follow the well-travelled paths of music tailored for the market, Cop Car aims to present in-your-face music and lyrics. Our goal is to grab some heads and smack them together... perhaps make people think about the world around them, what is going wrong, what they can do to change things. Changing the world through music isn't an impossible proposition.
These are the New Zealand radio stations that have supported Cop Car thus far, by adding a track or tracks to their playlists. Please support them, since they have supported us.
