This week we had Avondale local SPDRTWNBBY come through the studio for a kōrero - she talks about growing up and coming up in spider town, plays us some of the tracks that shaped her sound, and debuted a brand new song live on air. If you haven't caught her live yet, she's playing Ka Mua Ka Muri Live on 30 May at the Central City Library - free entry, alongside Phoebe Rings, Mokomokai, SPELL, and Cameron Beattie.
We're also celebrating birthdays for Taj Mahal, Amp Fiddler, George Johnson of the Brothers Johnson, and Jaguar Wright - all born on 17 May - and tipping our hat to some big album anniversaries: 50 years Ramsey Lewis's Salongo, and 40 years of RUN-DMC's Raising Hell and Peter Gabriel's So. Big week for the tunes!
