Hey there be-boppers. Blind Mango Chutney in the chair for a cracking 95bFM Jazz Show showcasing hard bop, be-bop, acoustic jazz, and even (gasp!) yacht rock.
Band leader and drummer Taylor Griffin drops in the studio on his way to play Music in Parks at the Auckland Domain band rotunda, to talk about inspiration, influences and recent projects—including his new EP ‘In Green’ (featuring Nathan Haines). And Blind Mango finishes up (perhaps?) his stories about the Dave Pike Set.
And of course don’t miss the Gig Guide, for all your upcoming jazz news and grooves around town.
Karyn returns from her break with a fantastic show this past Saturday morning.
Zac of Sunreturn was chats the Primer. gig for Your Gig Is Showing, and Finn premieres a brand new show segment called Rainy Day Projects - for all of you out there who need help deciding on a new hobby or a good way to procrastinate. All of this brought to you by our friends across the park, Auckland Art Gallery.
This weeks a bloomin trashy night of pooonky fun times with a slew o' grouse tuneroos from the land of Aus. You'll have fun, you'll lose all your money but at least you'll wake up next to someone, and THAT'S a promise!
DO!Be so reckless...!
This weeks shows success rate sits at an acceptable '7 busses arriving just as you get to the bus stop out of 10'! Very nice...but it could be better...I mean you could just have a car.
Today on your bFM Breakfast: Rachel's here and wait... Is that Sarah? Indeed it is. Lucky for the listeners, Sarah's riding shotgun today while Tess is off on staycation; Rob brings in lemons (as per, thank you Rob) and talks havana syndrome; our Prime Minister dials in a little later than usual to talk to Rachel about Oranga Tamariki, the budget and Iraq; and Randa joins Rachel and Sarah in the studio to give us a sneak peak at a brand new single. Fun times with Rachel and Sarah, aww.
