Auckland, New Zealand

Opshop are Jason Kerrison (vocals/guitar), Matt Treacy (guitar), Clint Harris (bass) and Bobby Kennedy (drums).

The New Zealand rock band have released two albums - 2004’s platinum selling ‘You Are Here’ and 2007’s multi-platinum selling ‘Second Hand Planet’.

Opshop were winners of the coveted ‘Peoples Choice Award’ at the 2007 New Zealand Music Awards. Also in 2007 their single “Maybe” achieved the honour of being the biggest song at New Zealand radio ever, holding the #1 most-played spot for 12 consecutive weeks.

Opshop describe their sound like this: “An equal opportunistic grab bag of semi-funkster pop and crackle ‘muesli’ rock. We like playing music that sounds nice and loud. And dirty and quiet and every nook ‘n’ cranny in between. If you’re not sure what it is. Its likely to be ours”.

Despite of what people below say, I think it sounds very good. I was trying to find the album You Are Here on either LimeWire or ThePirateBay.org but neither of them give me any results. Is there anyone out there who'd be kind enough to send me the album, or at least a couple of songs? I'd be very grateful. :D
