NZ Music Month's Melodic Memories (28)


Sadly NZ Music Month is coming to a close for yet another year, but it is an excellent way of shining the light on some of our top talent - both current and past.
Tomorrow I am doing a wrap-up post, so although these bands are by no means gone or anywhere near forgotten, today is dedicated to some of my favourite rock sounds.

I remember Supergroove. Back in my university days, awesome band

How cool!

I can't remember if I've heard anything else of theirs, but I loooove the one I posted. <3

Forgot about Mihirangi she was awesome. And of course supergroove & Che Fu!!

Absolutely. I'm happy the choices appeal to others too. :)

Excellent choices! Wasn't Mahirangi astonishing on that show?

Fantastic! and so talented. :)
