A very special episode of U Up this week featuring all New Zealand music all the time because New Zealand Music Month rocks coz Kiwi Rock that Rocks with rocking kiwi tunes all the time every time yeah yurr chaahooo she'll be right mate! Um rugby and buzzy bees and the McKiwi Burger.
But seriously live everyday like it's New Zealand Music Month.
Final week of Te Marama Puoro o Aotearoa - purely NZ tunes all across the SRN! Check out the NZMM website for all the cool events they have for this final week. Thanks to The Tuning Fork, I bring you today... my favourite tracks from Aotearoa! Well, as much as I can squeeze into two hours. No MĀ, no Hans Pucket, no JPSE, no Riki Gooch, and no dubstep - definitely missing a lot.
Remix of the Week:
Sophie - Is It Cold In The Water (Womb Remix)
Deputy Paul In the house with a quick slither around deep down in the blues hole. Muddy, John Lee, WIllie Dixon, Robert Johnson, Otis Spann and a couple more before we wriggle out and come back above ground to get into a tonne of new tunes. A bandcamp raid looking for nice hats and cool names turns up some doozies. The Swearengens, Tori Forsythe, Sierra Ferrell, Jackie Stranger, 4 Gun Ridge and Elliot Pearson & The Passing Lane. A sprinkling oif Emily Fairlight, SarahShook & The Disarmers and Mary Elaine Jenkins and Marlon Williams to close it all off. Plus more of course.
Went back and played some tunes from Princess Chelsea's set at Drive Island this week ahead of this weeks Drive Island with Carnivirous Plant Society & Creme Jean. We also had Peter from Sulfate up to share some influential songs and have a chat about the new project, the recpetion of his latest single & live shows. All this + new songs from Purple Pilgrims, Uber Driver & Hybrid Rose.

Drawing winter to a close, Kris and Rob (and Pearl from 5:30) return after a rude root canal catastrophe prevented last week's show, and a few of the listenership kindly share some of their own dental distasters.
Rob fires up Sport and Emmerdale (now also uploaded as its own segment), and the crew are all happy to welcome back the Prodigal Son of Beer, Finn Dingle, who joins them for the 16Tun Flagon Wagon beer review.
