Sherpa

From RNZ Music, 3:30 pm on 24 May 2014

During the past few years young bands from New Zealand and around the world have been rediscovering and reinterpreting the psychedelic music and culture of the late-60s. Among these is Auckland band Sherpa, whose second album is Blues and Oranges. Henry Oliver talked to Sherpa's vibrant front-man Earl Ho about the finer points of writing and recording the album, working with producer Kody Neilson, and why psychedelia is blooming once again.
