Shihad frontman Jon Toogood, who also leads The Adults, has been obsessed with "fearless" creator David Bowie since he was a Wellington high school kid. After Bowie's death, he collaborated on performances that brought together popular New Zealand musicians, the Christchurch Symphony Orchestra, and the Auckland Philharmonic Orchestra to play the songs of David Bowie. He is performing solo acoustic shows around New Zealand in February.
