Steve Earle
Recession, drugs, late parenting, his 15th studio album The Low Highway ...and the real reason he's writing his memoirs. The Grammy Award winning singer-songwriter Steve Earle is as frank as ever in conversation - and in session - with Mark Coles.
Mick Harvey
Mick Harvey first met Nick Cave in a high school covers band that mutated into one of the boldest and individualistic ‘live’ bands to confront Australian and UK audiences. When the Birthday Party disbanded Cave and Harvey formed The Bad Seeds embarking on a highly successful career until Harvey quit in 2009.
Mick was in New Zealand recently playing shows in support of his latest work Sketches From The Book Of The Dead and dropped into Radio NZ to talk about things past and present with Trevor Reekie.
The Crypt
A new pop-up venue has appeared in Wellington, right under the nose of St Mary of the Angels. It’s called the Crypt Sessions and features a diverse mix of vocal performance artists and experimental musicians.

Essential NZ Album: The Sneaky Feelings Send You
In the Flying Nun scene of the early 80s, Dunedin’s Sneaky Feelings stood out for their pop aspirations. In this programme of Essential New Zealand Albums Nick Bollinger discusses their first album, Send You, and talks to the record’s producer Phil Yule. Adapted from the book 100 Essential Albums, by Nick Bollinger, published by Awa Press.
Nathan Haines
With his meticulously traditional recording approach sax man Nathan Haines has finally found his niche after years of searching for that elusive pop-dance hit. On his new album Vermillion Skies he sticks to his jazz knitting, only dropping a stitch to include a couple of vocal numbers.
