Here at The Cross we have realized that there is just too much darn talent in this town and we want to have more room to support those up and coming, under-appreciated and hardworking bands like that one your flatmate has been working their toosh off for over the last three years, or that band your friend always tells you to go and see but you just didn't make it...

Well no excuses now because here at The Southern Cross we never charge you to enjoy a show - It's all FREE! In fact we'll provide the couches, tables and chairs so you can just sit back, relax and soak up some of Wellington's best local music. Let us take care of the dosh so those musos can eat and pay the rent on time!

Best of all, you won't have to be up all night because we will be starting at 7.30pm and finishing up before 11pm so you can still be in bed at a reasonable hour for a Thursday night - So why not come and support your mates and be a part of Wellington's vibrant musical community!

If you or anyone you know thinks that they have what it takes don't hesitate to email us at music@thecross.co.nz - please bear in mind that we will require a recording or video or both of your band to be sure of your sound.

Always fancied being the lead singer of a band? Well we have got something special for you! BANDEOKE is a take on classic Karaoke but it comes with a little twist; you're supported by Rod Allcock & The All Night All-Stars band. With a professional backing band & a huge repertoire of songs to choose from you're bound to discover at least one song to show off your talent. So join us every Thursday from 8.30pm onwards take over the stage and shine like a star. Be aware that if you sound like a cat being strangled we’ll spare the audience by ‘Gong-ing’ you off but if you get through to the end of your song we’ll shout you drink.

Wellington's premier gyp-hop-ruski-roots outfit, presenting a selection of delectable super nuggets of sound that even a zombie couldn't help but shake it's bones to.
