Anthonie Tonnon, one of Mosgiel's brightest sons, made the trans-island move to Auckland several years ago and based himself in the leafy, lofty suburb of Grey Lynn. Inspired by his new locale and the issues faced when flatting in one of Auckland's most desirable suburbs. Tonnon wrote Marion Bates Realty. Successor is released on March 6 with the band touring the country from March 5. For more on Anthonie Tonnon: anthonietonnon.com. Written by Anna C. Some gre...

Review: Alt-J- This is all yours | All things musical
http://allthingsmusicalblog.blogspot.com/2015/05/review-alt-j-this-is-all-yours.html
Review: Alt-J- This is all yours. Written by Richard Giles. If you're an Alt-J fan, you might be surprised that I find their new album " This is all yours. To be their best album yet. In fact, i'd go as far to say that it was my top album pick for 2014, if not one of my favourites of all time. Maybe this is because it is not conventional Alt-J, but something completely different, a huge step up from their first album "An awesome wave" whilst maintaining elements of their traditional, quirky style. Each l...

http://allthingsmusicalblog.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Archive for April 2015. Review: Gillian Welch - Time (the revelator). Hidden in Gillian Welch's Time(the revelator). Is a deeply weird album. Listening for the first time it is Welch's voice that seduces. Possessing a honey melancholy she weaves a spell, drawing you into a place of great intimacy. The sparse production which underlies the vocals adds warmth, relying on the most basic of instruments, just guitar and banjo, to enhance Welshes magic. Watch: Willard Grant Conspiracy. A few years ago I saw Ro...

NZ Music Month 2015 - Review - 'Soundtrack : 118 Great New Zealand Albums' | All things musical
http://allthingsmusicalblog.blogspot.com/2015/05/review-soundtrack-118-great-new-zealand.html
NZ Music Month 2015 - Review - 'Soundtrack : 118 Great New Zealand Albums'. There are few pieces of what could be considered classic New Zealand rock writing. For the most part it’s. Perfunctory, concerned with dates and track listings and band members than feeling and passion. It’s all so dry. The exception to that rule is often found in the world of music reviews. Here you can feel the blood start to pump, the temperature begins to rise, the temper to fray . Hat might be considered offensive. Smithies'...

Watch: Willard Grant Conspiracy | All things musical
http://allthingsmusicalblog.blogspot.com/2015/04/watch-willard-grant-conspiracy.html
Watch: Willard Grant Conspiracy. A few years ago I saw Robert Fisher play an acoustic show on K Road. I went with a good friend of mine who is a Poet, a proper Poet with ink stains on his fingers and holes in his shoes and a heart so big that it's liable to burst at any moment. We got drunk on expensive whiskey and turned up at the venue with our dignity barely intact. From the stage he noticed my inebriated enthusiasm and shot a gentle barb in my direction, which stung a little, mainly because I couldn'...

NZ Music Month 2015. No matter where you are, music will always have some meaning. When you have music in your heart, it stays with you. Music will always live on" - Pixie Costello (nee Williams), January 2010. Williams is probably best known for her recording of Ruru Karaitiana's song 'Blue Smoke' in 1948, arguably New Zealand's first pop song.

http://allthingsmusicalblog.blogspot.com/2015/05/nz-music-month-2015-listen.html
NZ Music Month 2015 - Listen. Our first Music Month playlist dives straight into NZ Pop, past and present. For now we'll forgive the '80s their frizzy perms and 'seated dancing' (see above) and thank them for some well-loved classic hits instead. Moving on, we bring you a short selection of our finest singer/songwriters and bands. It's not exhaustive by any measure, but hopefully enough to help you explore the genre. Enjoy. A Minute of One Day - TrueBliss. Don't Dream It's Over - Crowded House. Honey Wha...
