New Zealand Music Month gets flying start

Kiwi music is celebrating the 10th anniversary of New Zealand Music Month.

The annual May festival of home-grown talent is a chance for Kiwis to get behind the local music scene. Local pubs and venues across New Zealand will host a series of gigs that showcase their region’s best – from pop, rock and jazz to hip-hop and R’n’B.

NZ Music Month kicked off on 1 May with a series of events – including a quick-fire one-day flying concert tour by Kiwi rock band Opshop, and 10 concerts featuring new and established Kiwi musicians.

Kiwi musos who played 10 gigs at venues around the country included the Jordan Luck Band, Polynesian hip-hop group Nesian Mystik, Wellington songstress Iva Lamkum, Christchurch band The Transistors and Palmerston North metal band Just One Fix.
