With capacity for 6,000 people and the country's best rock acts, the Jim Beam stage in the TSB Arena will be cranking from start till finish.

2010 lineup will be released on 14th September

2009 lineup was...

 Blindspott                                 
That's right; we have managed to get Blindspott back together exclusively for Homegrown! Before they broke up in 2007 Blindspott were easily one of the top bands in the country with a string of hits and 2 epic albums that went straight to No1 on the charts. This will be HUGE!!
Supergroove                          
Supergroove dominated the charts in the 90's with a staggering 6 No1 hits & a debut album that sold over 5 times platinum. Since their reunion in 2007 they've played to sold out crowds around the country. At Homegrown they're bringing their energy charged set & closing the Jim Beam Rock Stage.
Opshop                                       
Opshop's latest album 'Second Hand Planet' has gone double platinum & celebrated a one year stay on the NZ music charts. They were the first band to take out the No1 single on iTunes with 'Maybe' and won an APRA Silver Scroll award for 'One Day'. They're just too good not to have at Homegrown!
Evermore                            
Evermore ooze talent. They've achieved critical aclaim, won 2 NZ music awards, an APRA Silver Scroll, an MTV award, 6 ARIA nominations & hit platinum sales for their last two albums. It's hard to argue with their success & they'll definitely be worth checking out on the Jim Beam Rock stage.
 Elemeno-P                          
They're a finely honed rock n roll machine who've been at the forefront of kiwi music for the last 6 years. Their 1st album sold 45,000 copies, they won the 2006 single of the year at the NZ music awards and 'Baby Come On' from their latest album has been everywhere in 2008. Make sure you don't miss them!  
Goodnight NurseGoodnight Nurse              
Goodnight Nurse get better & better every year & 2008 has been no exception with their new album 'Keep Me On Your Side' debuting at No1 on the charts. They have cemented themselves as one of the country's best rock acts & are a sure thing for the Jim Beam stage with their energetic & ballsy songs.
Streetwise Scarlett           
Rock....Pop....Pop n Roll....whatever it is, Streetwise Scarlett bring a credible dose of it to Homegrown. These guys don't take themselves too seriously but they are definitely good at what they do and if their debut album is anything to go by, the crowd will be begging for more.
  Luger Boa           
Beware the beast - here comes Luger Boa - winners of the Jim Beam band search! Jimmy Christmas (ex frontman for The D4) has taken his musical talents to new rock heights with his new band. A bright, tight refreshing sound with the same unbridled energy of The D4. Get there early and check them out.
Individual Stage Capacity

Each stage has a limited capacity and during the day access is on a
first come first serve basis.

Tickets to Homegrown are strictly limited and we're keeping numbers down to try and make sure everybody can see the bands they want to see, but if you've got a favourite band it can't hurt to get there a little early just in case.


Thanks to Jim Beam you'll also be able to enjoy a cold Beam from the best seats in the house.
