SWIDT are being supported by Melodownz and illbaz at all shows across New Zealand, but to help raise the roof at The Studio in Auckland, they’ve also called on Kiwi party starters, Diggy Dupe, Church & AP and Seymore.

Labelled as the ‘Hype God’ of the Auckland club scene, Seymore is known for filling dance floors with his eclectic mash of music, which spans R&B, trap, funk and hip-hop.

Melowdownz and illbaz will also support SWIDT in Dunedin. Wellington and Christchurch.

SWIDT’s tour follows the release of their latest EP, THE MOST ELECTRIFYING, which has drawn critical praise:

“Not only have SWIDT proven their place at the top of NZ hip-hop, they've proven they have much more to say and better yet, why we should listen” – NZ Herald
