Noel Fielding will perform three shows here in April.

Expect plenty of costume changes when Noel Fielding hits the stage for three shows in New Zealand next year.

The theatrical and well-dressed comedian from off-the-wall TV show The Mighty Boosh will perform shows in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch next April.

He'll perform at Auckland's ASB Theatre on April 6, Wellington's Michael Fowler Centre on April 10, and Christchurch's Horncastle Arena on April 12.

Fielding promises to bring a mix of stand-up comedy, live animations and music as well as appearances from his comic creations The Moon and Fantasy Man.

His brother Mike - who plays Naboo in The Mighty Boosh - will also be part of the show.

Since The Mighty Boosh ended its run after three seasons in 2009, Fielding has released a book, toured the live stand up version of the show, and created two seasons of his own show, Noel Fielding's Luxury Comedy.

Tickets for his shows are on sale from Ticketmaster and Ticketek from December 17 at 9am.

Meanwhile, he was last here with his reformed indie-rock darlings Pavement, but Stephen Malkmus will be performing under his solo guise when he returns for four shows in March.

Malkmus, the Pavement frontman who has released six albums with his band the Jicks, will perform four times in three cities: March 10 and 11 at Dunedin's Chicks Hotel, March 12 at Auckland's Studio, and March 13 at James Cabaret in Wellington.

They'll be playing on the back of their latest album, Wig Out at Jagbags, a record released earlier this year that TimeOut said showed off Malkmus' "fun" side in a three-and-a-half star review.

He's been here twice since 2009, first with the Jicks for a Kings Arms show supported by the Verlaines; the second for a sold-out Auckland Town Hall show with his reformed 90s indie group Pavement just months later in 2010.

Of that show, TimeOut said it contained many "magic moments ... that made for one happy reunion of band and fans and oddly enduring songs".

But it's recording with the Jicks that is Malkmus' main focus now, having formed the group in 2000 - a year after Pavement first split.

The current line-up consists of Mike Clark, bassist Joanna Bolme and Jake Morris.
