Little Bushman live with the NZSO - 23 February, Album Review
-
-
I remember the first time I saw Warren Maxwell live. He was playing an in-store gig at Real Groovy, with then unknown band, Trinity Roots. Warren spent the gig shifting between heart-felt soul-man and grinning, affable jester. At one point a young boy walked up to the goateed singer with a quizzical look on his face - to which ...

Connan Mockasin: Please turn me into the Snat - 23 February, Album Review
-
-
It’s been an 18 month journey for the man known as Connan. Please turn me into the Snat shifted its creation between East Sussex, London, and a haunted house somewhere right here in Wellington. The hype machine slowly but surely cranked into life, and has been working at full steam leading into its release on the 22nd of Feb.
So what ...

Signer: Next We Bring You the Fire - 22 January, Album Review
-
-
Ex-Wellingtonian Bevan Smith pokes his head up somewhat, with a tasty little morsel of an album. This ambient-slanted beat-maker has tended to fly somewhat under-the-radar during his lengthy tenure behind the mixing board, but next we bring you the fire Is a good reminder of Signer’s talent outside of his other band, Over the Atlantic. ...

Kora: with Strike - 18 December, Wellington Town Hall
-
-
Epic is a word I try not to use lightly. But now I’ve used it twice regarding Strike, in the space of just a few weeks. Although, when you put them with one of the two best, live, NZ music acts going around today (Along with Shapeshifter), it’s the only label that doesn’t peel off from the sheer intensity of such a collaborative ...

Fat Freddy's Drop - 31 October, The Front Room
-
-
The city was awash with an influx of costumed weirdness for Halloween. As I made my way towards Mt Vic’s former James Cabaret – now the Front Room – I fought a steady stream of characters including Pixar’s Incredibles, jandal wearing Spidermen (Must have been on holiday), barefoot little mermaids (Ditto) and sexy stewardesses, all heading ...

Flight of the Conchords: I told you I was freaky - Album Review
-
-
They’re back, and this time they’re freakier than ever. Or so they say.
Flight of the Conchords follow-up to their full-length debut continues with the formula that has made Bret Mckenzie and Jemaine Clement an international hit. The ingredients are so simple that you have to wonder why their sound has been so uniquely ...

Fly My Pretties CD & DVD Deluxe Edition - 16 August 2009
-
-
After ranting and raving about the gig itself (best thing I’ve seen in 2009, hands-down), the last few weeks left me a little anxious, wondering how the CD & DVD deluxe box set would stack up against the real thing.
And of course you can’t really make comparisons. Being at a live gig and watching a recording are so far removed ...

Le Sud - 5 August, Downstage Theatre
-
-
Opening nights always take a while to get cooking. Actors being a little nervous and all too anxious to perform their part well, rather than just letting the character takeover.
Le Sud stayed true to form, with an opening stanza that wobbled a little around the edges before settling into a rhythm. The material wasn’t helping much ...
