New Zealand’s most successful rock series ever, COME TOGETHER, returns in 2026 with an electrifying trio of landmark albums: Bruce Springsteen’s Born to Run, Radiohead’s OK Computer and Talking Heads’ Stop Making Sense.

Each album will be performed live, in full, by a rotating supergroup of Aotearoa’s most acclaimed rock artists and musicians — followed by a second set of classics and deep cuts that span each artist’s extraordinary catalogue.

From the wall of sound production of Born to Run, to the haunting dystopian brilliance of OK Computer, to the joyful and immersive perfection of Stop Making Sense, the 2026 series celebrates three albums that have cemented their place in music history. Performed in some of the country’s most beautiful venues, Come Together once again promises epic musicianship, emotional punch and the kind of once-in-a-lifetime collaborations that have made the series a cultural phenomenon.

Widely regarded as one of the greatest live albums and concert films of all time, Stop Making Sense captured Talking Heads at the absolute height of their powers. A bona fide classic, it remains a benchmark for concert performance and sonic brilliance.


Recreated in all its Talking Heads glory, every track from the concert film will be performed — from Psycho Killer to Burning Down the House, Once in a Lifetime, and everything in between. Expect big grooves, art-school cool… and yes, some mighty suits.

Performed by: James Milne, Anthonie Tonnon, Dianne Swann, Julia Deans and the Come Together band — with more to be announced.
