Hi from Caz

Gosh you guys have been part of my life for so long! When my husband and I first got together – SING wouid play as soon as we entered anywhere! Pub, shop, mall. Your albums have followed us through moving countries, to having kids.
I’m a kiwi (why didn’t you come!), and the first time I saw you was a visit to London in 2024 whwn you were supporting The Killers. Two for one, I couldn’t believe my luck! I was there with my brother and his 16 year old daughter. My niece. Her mum had died three years before, that was the main reason I was visiting.
So before you sang CLOSER, you told us all to think about someone we loved and missed and couldn’t be near. My little niece had tears running down her cheeks as you sang. She wanted her mum by her side. I was thinking of her too. Now whenever I hear that song, I think of that moment. It was sad, but we needed our cry.
We’re just chilling over here in NZ. Kids have left for University, so it’s just us and Spotify. Thanks for all of the great songs and memories. I love hearing your anecdotes on why you wrote certain songs Fran. Funny that you were competing in your head with Oasis. I still can’t figure them out either. Bit soulless.

Lots of love to you all.

Caz

PS – can you please come to New Zealand next time? It’s not just Aussie diwn here!

Hey Caz, we are very sorry for not making it to NZ last time round – we were not able to get a viable deal or venue together and the timing unfortunately didn’t fit with the other dates – we are sorry. We are desperate to make it work and will endeavour to get it together ASAP. Thank you for the kind words and all the support through the years. Neil

Hey Caz. What a hard thing for a young person to lose their mum. That moment in the show felt like the room doubled in size with all the people we were thinking of joining us. We will return to NZ one day soon. We couldn’t this time because of timings and available venues or some other non band reason. Take care and thanks for posting X
