Tina has a mixed bag of delights, some raucous, some as smooooooottthhhh as Donny Gerrard, who backed the insanely good Mavis Staples on Tuesday... some new records/discoveries and some Prince (of course) in remembrance & ahead of his tribute night
Today on your bFM Breakfast: Rachel selects some tunes and they're going down a treat; National Party's Paula Bennett talks to Rachel about the UN's extinction report, cannabis and leadership in the party; Rob's got a story that he's ready to make into a film, for any directors out there; and NZ Herald journalist, Kirsty Johnston, comes in to talk about Fighting the Demon. Join us as we dive into the glorious tunes Rachel has selected for this Wednesday.
A show with a vibe centred around a chat with Adam McGrath of the Eastern. Townes, Bob Dylan, Son Volt, Anna Tivel for some folkyness. Then new tunes from The Felons, Bohannons, Mary Battiata & Cory Brannan. A big chat with Adam about his current tour and show at the Tuning Fork on June 8th, and playing a bit of Upper Hutt Posse in his honour. ( That ain't no Hank WIlliams song ! ) And then tapering off with Some crazy old 70's rednecks, back on the protest vibe Billy Bragg and Wilco and heaps more in between.
