Musical Chairs featuring Denise Roughan
As multi-instrumentalist and vocalist for all-girl Dunedin group Look Blue Go Purple, The 3D's, Ghost Club, and the new recruit in Marineville, Denise Roughan has spent the last few decades on the fringes of indie rock fame. We speak to her about her journey from playing house parties in Dunedin in the 80s, to being lauded by British music media, playing sell-out shows in the UK and USA, and touring with Pavement and Superchunk in the 90s, to her return to a small indie band in Wellington.
