Northland based multi-award-winning musician Troy Kingi is set to release "The Ghost of Freddie Cesar", the fourth instalment in his 10/10/10 series - 10 albums in 10 years in 10 genres.

The album has a mysterious genesis. It's inspired by a cassette tape found and lost, and a father lost and never found.

Troy's dad disappeared without trace while driving from Rotorua to Auckland in December 2005.

His album is his creative re-interpretation of song fragments he recalls from a cassette tape his father left behind.

Troy is treating us to a live performance and a preview of a few tracks from the album.

He's performing with his band The Clutch in Napier, Wellington and Auckland in late October. Details here.
