Access All Areas: Etta James guitarist Bobby Murray
The long reigning Queen of the blues, Etta James passed away on January 20 2012, aged 73. She was an original - a supremely talented natural born singer who had a career dating back to the 1950s. Etta’s guitarist for the past 20 years was Bobby Murray, who was born in the ‘50s. The three-time Grammy award winning guitarist talks to Trevor Reekie about the virtuosity and vulnerability of the great Etta James.
Nick Bollinger reviews a new solo album by musician Joe Henry.
Loopy guitarist Mark McGuire from Cleveland, Ohio three piece Emeralds stops in for a session in our studio.
3 - 4pm
Bernard Sumner talks about re-forming New Order without bassist Peter Hook, Joy Division’s legacy and returning to New Zealand 30 years after they first came here.
Sugar Mountain Festival
We attend a festival in Melbourne which sees art and music intersect in the iconic Forum Theatre. Shaun D Wilson heads into the shadows to meet looping vocalist Julianna Barwick, some sisters who were raised on Hare Krishna and now make psychedelic rock, an Australian who thinks pop started with Justin Timberlake, and to save one of the festival's headliners from certain death.

Visit Camp Wainui near Wellington, for boutique indie festival Camp A Low Hum.
