Californian rock legends Jefferson Starship will join TOTO and Dragon on next year’s ‘A Summer’s Day Live’ series, which will take in some of the most picturesque locations and popular concert venues across New Zealand.

The three big hitters are playing at TSB Bowl of Brooklands in New Plymouth on January 11.

It’s fitting that Jefferson Starship should join the bill alongside other renowned US hitmakers, TOTO, who are behind some of the most iconic songs in history. Loved for hits such as ‘Rosanna’, ‘Africa’ and ‘Hold The Line’, TOTO band has released 17 studio albums, and sold more than 40 million records worldwide, since forming in the 1970s.

Meanwhile, representing homegrown talent is the one and only Dragon. The Kiwi rockers boast hits such as ‘April Sun in Cuba’, ‘Are You Old Enough’, ‘Rain’ and ‘Still In Love With You’, and remain one of New Zealand’s most popular live acts.
