Hutt Zone - 23 July

This week’s it’s all about the Lower Hutt Music Map from AudioCulture Iwi Waiata – Chris Bourke takes us through some of the highlights of the trail – and we sample some of the music in the map: Steve Gilpin, Mu of Fat Freddy’s Drop, Shona Laing, Eddie O’Strange, Vera Ellen, Jenny Morris, plus hear about the EMI studios, local record stores and learn about where in the Hutt music literally rocked the suburbs & town centre!! Ohh, and what Somes Island’s musical past included during World War One.
We’ve poetry from Eastern Bay’s writer Maggie Rainey-Smith from her appearance at the 2022 Nelson Arts Festival – Pukapuka Talks.
You can always Facebook message John with local story, musician or poetry suggestions.
