Epic House Band – Taking a Break (March 2026)

The Epic House Band will be taking a break for a little while as our legendary bassist RhysO heads in for knee surgery.

Anyone who’s been at the taproom on band nights knows RhysO doesn’t just hold down the low end for the band. He’s also the man behind the post-band DJ sets and our Saturday Music Trivia, making him a huge part of the music and entertainment vibe at Epic.

Because he’ll be off his feet for a while during recovery, the band will be on pause for a bit.

Please join us in sending RhysO good vibes and fast-healing thoughts so we can get him back behind the bass (and the DJ decks) as soon as possible.

In the meantime, the taproom will keep rolling with great beer, pizza, pinball, and a few different musical surprises along the way.

We’re looking forward to the day the band fires back up again.

Nestled in the heart of Onehunga, the Epic Taproom is a haven for live music enthusiasts. This vibrant venue is gearing up to showcase the Epic House Band, a group of exceptionally talented musicians who are set to make a mark on the local music scene.
