Goodnight Nurse was a New Zealand pop punk band that emerged in the early 2000s, combining energetic melodies with punk-inspired riffs to carve out a place in the music scene. The group was formed in Auckland, initially consisting of lead vocalist and guitarist Joel Little, bassist Paul Taite, and drummer Sam McCarthy, though later Jaden Parkes would join as guitarist. They gained a strong local following with their dynamic performances and catchy tunes.
The band's repertoire expanded with a series of notable releases that cultivated a dedicated fan base both domestically and abroad, all the while showcasing their punk rock flair and affinity for crafting infectious hooks. Their notable releases across their career include the singles "The Night," which received a dynamic Dryden Street Remix, the stand-alone track "Milkshake," which demonstrated their versatile approach to genre, and the ambitious three-part series "All Hail The Serpent Queen," concluding with the climactic "Pt. 3 of 3 (Holy Hell!).” Albums like "Keep Me On Your Side" and "Always and Never" featured both the original and the Australian versions of key tracks, cementing their cross-Tasman appeal. Goodnight Nurse's sound exemplified the high-energy essence of pop punk during their active years, before the members eventually moved on to new creative endeavors.
