Second Gear Grind is a rock band hailing from the south of New Zealand.

In 2008 Second Gear Grind's debut EP, “Fistful of Silver”, was independently released. The EP was recorded at Clevetown studios in Christchurch and mastered in Chicago, US. The disc is available in local record stores, by messaging this page or online at the Heavy Downunder webstore by clicking the link below (ships internationally, t-shirts also available).




Over the last few years Second Gear Grind has gained a reputation for playing loud and spirited live shows down the length of New Zealand, with an array of bands, seeking to further exposure throughout the country but also across the Tasman as part of an ever growing link between New Zealand and Australian rock bands.

Since forming in 2005 Second Gear Grind has shared the stage with Brant Bjork and the Bros, Cobra Khan, Slavetrader, Pod People, Looking Glass, Hotel Wrecking City Traders, Arc of Ascent, The House of Capricorn, Soulseller, Left or Right, Interconnector, The Defendants and Subtract amongst others, at events like The Devil’s Kitchen and the annual Eyes of the South/Northern Lights festival.
