SIX60 RETURN TO THEIR ROOTS ON FIFTH ALBUM RIGHT HERE RIGHT NOW
New Zealand’s stadium-filling outfit SIX60 have dropped their fifth studio album, Right Here Right Now, a bold return to the organic, roots sound that propelled their debut to 13x platinum status.
This is a band reconnecting with their core. Every final track was captured in a single take. The band played live together in the room at Graywood Studios in Nashville, with producer Malay at the helm.
The result balances feel-good summer anthems with intimate emotional depth. We Made It and Knocking at Your Door channel the band’s euphoric, open-air spirit.
Meanwhile, ballads like Endlessly and Hurricane reveal a softer, contemplative edge. Reggae rhythms and pop sensibility anchor the production, leaving generous space for movement and vocal clarity.
THIS CAPTURES THE ESSENCE THAT’S MADE SIX60 A STADIUM-SELLING FORCE
Frontman Matiu Walters delivers a compelling performance throughout, shifting effortlessly between restraint and release. His vocal range matches the album’s emotional arc, whether he’s riding a summer chorus or drawing listeners into quieter reflection.
Landing on 13 February, Right Here Right Now captures the raw essence that’s made SIX60 a stadium-selling force at home. It also arrives as UK and European demand continues to expand. For new audiences, this is a direct invitation into their world.
To mark the release, an exclusive crystal rose vinyl is available via Rough Trade, offering a tactile piece of this pivotal moment. This is SIX60 at their most honest. Stripped back, plugged in, and alive.
