Hung out with a friend last night that I barely ever see. And he's a big advocate for all things New Zealand. So for that guy I'll post this though I'm sure he already has it. But for the rest of yins this is a really underrated batch of folkish, deconstructed pop done up in that kiwi fashion. At it's core there's a girl, a dude (previously in Shoes this High), and an acoustic guitar. Typically, this triad is supplemented by other sound sources, but it still has that olde folk undercurrent. I've been trying to figure out why this band isn't discussed when kiwi legends are listed. I still have no answer.

Nice one - thank you!
ReplyDeleteGlad someone likes this otherwise I might have had to shut this blog down.
ReplyDeletecoming from new zealand, i always find it strange when non-new zealanders are aware of and promote new zealand music (not in a bad way)
ReplyDeletestrange because I know many people who are completely obsessed with all things kiwi. I suppose it's perspective.
ReplyDeletewould be nice if you could make it known that this LP has been reissued and is still readily available on discogs.com directly from the label for very little money.
