95bFM's daily magazine show, a signature mix of arts, culture, interviews & features, and great music. The Morning Glory bCast features full shows and feature interviews.
Played some live tracks from the Repairs & Tooms gig at The Wine Cellar earlier this month + spun a few of my favourite new songs including ones from Yaeji, Kate NV & Roy Ayers.
Back in the studio today after a long weekend. 2 hours of music including some live goodies from Leaping Tiger & Skilaa who played at The Wine Cellar last week too. Felt weird to be talking about and promoting music at the moment but there is an incredible amount of great music emerging from people of colour so that was the focus this week.

Today on the show we have our first gig guide in a sweet while which honestly, is so exciting. We also have some tracks in response to what ya'll are doing today and during the weekend which leads us down some weird rabbit holes. Enjoy!
"Jazz fusion for the people" group BADMAW join for Fancy New Band following yesterday's release of their debut EP and in preparation for their gig on the 26th of October! Check it out!
Tāmaki Makarau singer-songwriter Nganeko joins bFM to discuss their latest sirenic single 'Simple Illusions' produced by Brandon Haru and Brent Parks.
Born from a trasitional period of life of "finding my feet", Simple Illusions explores vunerability and the creation of walls and boundaries that are, ultimately, just an illusion. As Nganeko puts it: "we keep ourselves in a rut sometimes and just gotta do something... go outside!"
Listen to Nganeko chat with Sofía about sonic inspirations, Casio watches, and hit chemical manufacturing film Dark Waters.
Listen back to Lucia's interview with Rich Peppiatt, director of the KNEECAPbiopic set for release in New Zealand on 24 October. The semi-fictitious film chronicles the origin of Belfast's riotous Gaelic rap trio KNEECAP. Fans of the Irish lads rejoice because they'll be making their Aotearoa debut next year at the Powerstation. Whakarongo mai nei to hear about how the film came to be and behind-the-scenes insights.
Elle catches up with MACEY about his newest single, 'before you have to go'. Together they discuss the writing of the single, its themes, and his relationship with music. MACEY also brought along his guitar to play the song live!
