The Christchurch five-piece band play “head snapping, soul stomping” original tunes and covers. As the name suggests, Defroster will speed up even the slowest metabolism. The band embraces a multitude of styles from the cruisey sounds of Otis Redding to the ‘dirty funk’ of Rick “Superfreak” James.

Defroster are: Gerard Masters (keyboards), Thaw (trumpet), Steff Chubb (saxophone), Greig Bainbridge (bass) and Daniel Kennedy (drums).
