Jon Toogood of Shihad will perform at Stallions Te Awamutu on February 18, presented and supported by local musician Mike Conlon.

After a successful show from Opshop frontman Jason Kerrison in 2022, Mike is excited to bring another Kiwi star to our town.

“It’s very humbling for Jon to agree to perform a show with me in Te Awamutu. I reached out to Jon back in June. We finally agreed on a date in October. Organising these shows often takes a lot of time,” says Mike.

“I have two more big shows in the pipeline. Hopefully, I can get these over the line. I am always looking for prospects for more shows, and I am in constant discussions with a lot of artists.”

Jon will perform a live acoustic set, with all proceeds going to Te Awamutu charity group Loving Arms - a group of people that are passionate about helping new mums and their families not only survive, but thrive.

Hailing from Wellington, Jon formed Shihad with drummer Tom Larkin in 1988.

In 1996, he was awarded Male Vocalist of the Year at the Aotearoa Music Awards (previously known as New Zealand Music Awards), and backed that up with further Male Vocalist of the Year awards in 1998 and 2000.

Ten years later, he was inducted into the New Zealand Music Hall of Fame as part of Shihad.

A pre-show sit-down meal will be available between 5pm-7pm, but booking is essential. Contact Stallions on 07 871 7282.
