Goon des Garcons is off to New Zealand. Specifically, GDG (Brandon Burris), Tan the Terrible (Tanner Dumas), Hector $lash and Solo Jaxon are travelling to Auckland, Tauranga, Hamilton, Wellington and Dunedin, taking the Arkansas sound down under. 

While there, GDG will be finishing tracks for his album “AINTNOWAYINHELL,” for which he’s putting together a “coffee table photobook” to accompany the album. That photobook, along with New Zealand tour lighters, t-shirts, hoodies and hats are among the swag the four rappers are offering as incentives on their fundraising campaign.
