Join Jenn for another Thursday filled with her musical curiosities. We play some punky pop from CHAI and New Pants, get smooth with Gene Harris and Gemma and Jenn announces the first ever NZ show of Hiss Golden Messenger. Look after yourselves, don't be adick and look after our home. Mauri Ora!
Another Thursday rolls around and a slightly manic Jenn plays you some slightly manicmusical choices. Hear tracks by the likes of Automatic, Joe Batan, Proc Fiskal and Sports Dreams. Or, just tune in to hear Jenn be generally, slightly confused. It was America all along!
This week, Sam looks back at the 2010s and plays some of his favourite songs from the decade. He also pays tribute to drummer Ginger Baker who died this week.
