Manuka Hive have launched themselves onto a thriving live scene with rapturously received support slots with rising stars Avalanche Party and Sheafs and have already ticked ‘mad Paris show’ off their bucket list. No mucking around. Nor is ‘R.E.D’, the band’s debut release (recorded & produced by Oscar of Hidden Charms), it is a powerful psychedelic trip into the hedonistic and hazy world of Manuka Hive that’ll leave you wanting more. Ones to watch.
