Get boogielicious with Sonic Delusion this Summer

Sonic Delusion is returning to Ōpunakē Beach for Sounds on the Sand on Saturday 13 January 2024.

“We are incredibly excited to welcome Sonic Delusion to Sounds on the Sand this year. We know André will have everyone up on their feet dancing in the sun,” says Event Co-ordinator Ella Tosland.

The vibrant Swiss-Kiwi, high-energy performer, Sonic Delusion (André Manella) has played over 1,000 live shows at venues and festivals across Switzerland, New Zealand, Australa and Germany over the last decade.

In his boogielicious live performances, Sonic Delusion uses his well-worn loop pedal with an array of instruments to skilfully layer and create an irresistible sound that is bursting with more funk than folk can handle.

“Pack a picnic, or grab some food from the campsite shop, and bring the whole family down for an afternoon of music. Don’t forget sunscreen!” says Ella.

Sounds on the Sand is part of the South Taranaki District Council’s annual summer events where we host a range of family-friendly, free events for our communities.

Sounds on the Sand featuring Sonic Delusion – Saturday 13 January 2024, from 12noon at Ōpunakē Beach.
