One of New Zealand’s all-time favourite bands is back.
Fur Patrol first appeared in 1998 with their EP ‘Starlifter’, three albums and songs topping the charts all through the 2000s.
They’re returning to Kiwi audiences later this year on a New Zealand tour, visiting Christchurch, Auckland, and Nelson.
Fur Patrol last performed together in 2022, and frontwoman Julia Deans told Jack Tame that getting together feels like being back in the family again, and everything just kind of locks into place.
She said that when they did the shows for the Pet anniversary tour, everyone was so excited and happy, and they’re hoping to generate that kind of buzz again.

Speaker 2 (00:19):
Against That Voice say So Pure, so Beautiful. One of
(00:52):
our Theodore is all time favorite bands for Patrol is back.
They first appeared back in nineteen ninety eight with the
Star offter Ep and their legacy demands all sorts of
respect three albums and songs that top the charts in
the naughties. But Fur Patrol is going to be touring
New Zealand later this year. But the guitar, the attitude
(01:15):
and that killer voice front woman Julia Dean's is with
us this morning.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Kyodo, good morning, Nice to be here.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
Yeah, nice to see you in person and fantastic to
hear that you guys are going to be playing on stage.
Is this the first time in two years?
Speaker 4 (01:30):
Am I right? And thinking yeah?
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Or if you? Or the second time in a gazillion?
Speaker 4 (01:35):
If yeah?
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Okay, so you last for Patrol will last together in
twenty twenty two? What was it about that experience that
made you think this would be fun and worthwhile?
Speaker 3 (01:48):
So? I think one of them is the fact. One
of the things is that we just we're actually like
siblings and when we get together it's just it's like
being back in the family again, and everything just kind
of locks into place, and just all the stupidity happens,
like the good stupid yeah, and the other is yeah.
(02:09):
We just and we loved play together. But also when
we did those shows for the pet anniversary tour, the
feedback that we were getting from the audience is just
like it was like walking into a big love fest.
Everyone was so excited and so happy. And I actually
(02:31):
just posted I was looking back through the photos that
our friend Nick took and came with us on the tour,
and he took all these amazing photos of the audience
and just the faces of utter joy and delight. I
just posted a whole lot of them on my Instagram
the other day because it was just like, these are
beautiful and I can get like little friendly goosebumping feelings
(02:54):
just thinking about it. It's just, you know, everyone sang
all the words, even to like the most obscure songs
on the record kind of thing. So we're hoping that
we can sort of generate that buzz again. And with
our second album, which was Collider, which is now twenty
years old.
Speaker 4 (03:15):
Come on, twenty years is nothing, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
Which wasn't as commercially. There's so much of a hit
as as pat But I don't know. We love it, Yeah,
we love it, and we know we know we've got
people that were messaging us after the last.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Two Yeah, had you not anticipated that response?
Speaker 1 (03:34):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (03:35):
I think we were more thinking more about ourselves and
how much fun we were going to have. And then
once we you know, so like hit the stage and
just met everyone and you know, on the stage and
in the audience and that beautiful kind of bubble, it's like,
that's right, that's what this is like. Yeah, yeah, it's
it's a good communal experience because it's not just us
(03:58):
having a blast, it's the fact that we look down
as everyone else having a blast, and then that just
makes us feel better, and then that makes them feel
better and then you just got little happy feedback loop.
Speaker 4 (04:09):
What does good stupidity look like? What does good stupidity mean?
Speaker 3 (04:15):
It feels like sore core muscles, you know, when you've
been laughing so hard that you just like stop.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
That is the best pain in the world is Isn't
that an amazing feeling when you when you when you
literally you can feel the physical effect of having hung
out with people you love.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
Yes, absolutely. I mean, you know you've been all that
time with your eyes screwed up tight because you're sleep.
Your mouth's open really wide, making these horrendous noises that
are great fun.
Speaker 4 (04:46):
Yeah, laughing.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
Okay, so twenty years. So that means that since nineteen
ninety eight the Starle off Threep, your first big release.
Speaker 4 (04:56):
Is twenty six years.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
Yeah. So yes, what is the.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
Kind of nosty older element? Do you think there's like
a do you think for for the you know, for
your for your fans and for you guys?
Speaker 3 (05:12):
Is it?
Speaker 2 (05:13):
You know, there's a real kind of because the reason
the reason I asked this is I went back and
listened to I just actually wanted to look up a
couple of videos of videos on YouTube, and I had
looked up in ages and I was looking at Lydia
and there was a comment. One of the top comments
on YouTube was someone who said, I'm from Japan and
I was an exchange student in New Zealand when this
was released, and it's amazing how this song to me
(05:34):
just brings back, you know, just brings back this incredible
volume of memories from that time. And I wondered how
many times that kind of story doesn't have to be
someone from overseas or anything has been repeated, and there's
a kind of that that that early aughts nostalgia.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (05:50):
Often we get people, you know, have done for years,
people coming and saying, oh, we played your song at
our wedding. Oh I remember I just moved to blah
blah blah, I'd just broken up with somebody, you know,
all those sort of life moments. It's funny, though, somebody
who told me years ago that you don't understand what
nostalgia really is until about the age of forty. I
(06:15):
think somewhere around the age of forty was it just
was thinking about something and I was having that kind
of like, oh, nice sort of reminiscent thing. I mean,
oh my god, No, I know what they meant. No,
I really understand what nostalgia actually is.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
Is it better to have someone playing your song at
their wedding or through their breakup?
Speaker 3 (06:36):
Oh? Both?
Speaker 4 (06:37):
Do you reckon?
Speaker 3 (06:38):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (06:38):
Well, it's good that you can exist in both those spaces.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
Yeah. Okay. So also, you know, particularly with Lydia, it's
like you played this as if you heard the lyrics
as your wedding does. Yeah, or somebody walked down the
aisle to it. It's like around Monte.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
Yeah, yeah, it can be. It can be both pretty
and I suppose yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
I don't know. I guess that's it is. You know,
that whole idea of a song. It's like smell. I
guess music can be like scent. You know, these things
that trigger a whole cascade of memories and emotions. It's
that same powerful thing, especially when you hear something. I
think it's like between your mant teens to late twenties.
(07:32):
That's a really formative time of life and sort of
and turning who you are and going to be as
an adult. And so I guess all those experiences have
this extra level of sinking in this that's a technical
TI yeah, yeah, no, they do that kind of foundational
imbedded Yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
But don't they say that the whatever album you listen
to at seventeen, you'll be listening to it at seventeen. Yeah. Yeah,
but that's the that's the kind of whatever it is
about that that stage of life. I know you love
them like brothers, you said, Andrew and Simon, But what
was it like playing with them versus writing your own
(08:13):
stuff and performing solo.
Speaker 3 (08:16):
Oh, it's it's way more companionable and fun and prone
to a little bickering. But that's okay.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
What does what does a little bicker look like?
Speaker 3 (08:26):
What?
Speaker 2 (08:26):
What's the sort of thing that you were bicker over?
Give us give us a sense of how trivia all
this bicker?
Speaker 3 (08:31):
Oh man, I can't even define it. Just stupid things,
familiar things.
Speaker 4 (08:38):
You didn't carry that amp or.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
Like, No, we're actually pretty We've always been reasonably good
at reasonably good at you know, the sharing of lugging
air duties. I guess maybe it was its going to
be the SOMN drive, which I think I dutifully should
volunteer for more now because back when we were touring
(09:00):
all the time, I didn't actually have a license. I
could drive, but it wasn't licensed, so I didn't. I
meant to shirk that.
Speaker 4 (09:07):
It feels like a real strategic move. Don't tell them, sorry, guys. Ah,
you know what I really love to.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
Another thing that struck me just just going back through YouTube,
And I don't know why I decided to do that,
but I just as you do, is how music videos
used to I feel like at that time, especially you know,
in the early aughts, music videos were such a kind
of central part of the art. Yeah, And I don't know,
maybe it just speaks to me being older and maybe
(09:39):
not as being like it's up with it, So I
might once have wished I was.
Speaker 4 (09:45):
But it feels like music videos don't hold the same place.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
No, I don't think they do. And I think a
large part of that is because the avenues for playing
them have changed. So when you used to make a video,
you'd spend all this money on it and and time,
and they were really only there was only music television
to watch it on. So but which meant that it
(10:12):
could actually earn sort of royalties for the artists as well.
So I guess it was. But it was also part
of that whole package off you make a if you
make a song single, you've got to have a video
to help sell it. Blah blah blah. But now that
I guess it's it's like music streaming, the whole video streaming.
There are more avenues, but the pay per view kind
(10:36):
of thing is is dominating significantly smaller. Yeah, I mean
that's that's my theory.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
And do you think as a result that the kind
of artistic approach to music videos has probably been reduced
as well, that maybe artists they don't don't see as
much value as they once did and really distinct video
or Yeah, I think.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
I think when you actually are going to put the
money into it, you tend to make sure it's going
to be good, worth viewing and worth spending money on.
Otherwise it's there's a whole lot of like with a lyric,
lyric videos or just seemi like little thirty second videos
to kind of get I guess on social media and
(11:19):
so forth. And then what of visualizers, lots of verse,
I think, and then the you know, the big cats
at the top of the food pyramid music pyramid. Rather
they tend to steal pot lots and lots of money
into fancy music videos. And I still love watching flashy
(11:40):
music videos, I think. And it's nice that that visual
element to a song there's something really quite magical and that. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
So what can we expeak from the shows?
Speaker 3 (11:52):
Fun?
Speaker 4 (11:53):
Good with the capital F you and only a small
amount of bickering from those on stage.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
Usually it's when I'm talking too much in between songs
and then just Simon just starts counting in with it.
Speaker 4 (12:05):
Hi, does it do that?
Speaker 3 (12:07):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (12:09):
And do you ever like try and push him so
like if he's trying to give you a forecut, you'll
just push it out and just say, well.
Speaker 3 (12:15):
I think probably more now than I And I think
the problem from that is that I've gotten used to being,
you know, playing lots of solo things where where I'm
the bust or the only person on stage, and so
rather than the band waiting for me or me waiting
for me, Simon's just there. Oh come on.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
And it's not just if he's if he's counting you in,
it's if the count's actually subtly getting faster and faster
and faster.
Speaker 4 (12:39):
That's when you really need to worry.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
Yeah, I look, I know, I know so many people
are going to be delighted that you guys are back
playing live. So many people people, so many people will
be giving you those same expressions that they did when
you guys want to give you a couple of years ago.
Speaker 4 (12:56):
So yeah, thank you so much for giving us your
time and good luck.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
Thank you thanks for having me in a treat.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
Yeah, it really has that is Julia Dean. She is
of course the front will for Fur Patrol. Fir Patrol
are going to be performing in Lyttleton, Tarmackee, Makoto, Auckland,
Nelson in September of this year. We'll have all the
details dates to their shows and we can buy tickets
at Newstalks, SEADB, dot co, dot m Z.
