Today on your bFM Breakfast: no one can speak French (well, maybe Maria); His Worship the Mayor's getting pretty good at pre-empting our lines of questioning; Harry's got no time for Mikey's hi-jinx; it's only Shonen Knife, playing live in studio (!); and Sarah keeps blowing Lillian's news items.
Today on your bFM Breakfast: Chris Marshall, bass in both Miss June and The Miltones, drops in to talk short burst touring; Penelope Noir and Aimee from Tatty's educate on the recycled clothing game; we air our special interview with Baby Driver director Edgar Wright; Simon Velvin stops by to talk all things Semi-Permanent; and we stay in the lobby to learn about the anthropological study of multi-player online video game music.
Your prayers have been answered, Tuva'a is back in town and back on Rāmere Drive! Featuring a double bill of two bands both by way of Te-Whanganui-a-Tara on Friday Live. First up is Goya who are in town for the release tour of their LP Home Turf. Luckily, E.U.G. are also in town for the same tour and bring you another in-studio set of heavy hitting Welly punk, brought to you by NZ On Air Music, with thanks to McLeod's Brewery.
Rāmere drive featured Pōneke 4-piece post-punk outfit Half/Angel playing for Friday live, playing their newest E.P - Boat Ramp + Jitterbug, and witty banter from today's drive host - Oto.
To celebrate Te Wiki o te Reo Māori we played a bunch of tangata whenua faves as well as some solid Ngāti Pākehā allies. Mokotron, MĀ & WYNONA, Cave Circles, Dudley Benson, Droneeater and Geneva AM are just some of the local treasures we highlighted. As always, Toitū Te Tiriti.
