Show Notes
I caught up with Luke and Dom from Flamingo Pier to talk about their upcoming tour for the latest LP, Woven Together.
Woven Together reflects the emotional rhythm of everyday life, exploring the highs and lows that connect us on the dancefloor and beyond.I love the sentiment behind Woven Together and the idea of music creating connection and community.
Woven Together was created and recorded at home in Aotearoa, celebrating the community of artists and collaborators over the past decade of Flamingo Pier.It was great to learn more about the early days of Flamingo Pier.
I hope to catch you all on the dance floor this October! Tickets are on sale through Banished Music, the full LP Woven Together is scheduled for release on the 9th of October.

I caught up with Tāmaki local, Ariel Wose to talk all things music and all things her.
I sat down with Marlon, Taylor & Jupes to chat about their band, Model. Model is based in Tāmaki Makaurau, a group of three packing an absolutely punch on the scene. They bring such a fresh, fun and vibrant energy to the stage. We talked about their EP "A Child Swimming", how the band was formed and the intentionality they carry through into the marketing of Model. I love how cohesive they are as a group and their approach to creating music together. If you haven't seen Model live yet, I strongly encourage you to do so, I guarantee you'll have the best time. They are touring this October through T & M, check out their instagram for more details.
In the eighth episode of Method, I chat with Sarvi. Sarvi is a solo artist located in Tāmaki Makaurau. Her first release was in 2023, when she was creating music with The Winch. Sarvi now releases music under the management of Good Twin, located in London. We talked through Sarvi's start into creating music with The Winch and the evolvement of her creative process across the years, alongside her recent release Snake Charmer and her time at the APRA SongHubs. Sarvi is reflective in this interview of the challenges she faces personally as an artist and I really respected her vulnerability and openness throughout our conversation. She has such a beautiful soul with an immense amount of talent and I can't wait to see what the future holds for her.
I caught up Tāmaki local singer-songwriter Paige last week to discuss her new single Hypocrite. This release marks a turning point for Paige as she moves into becoming an independent artist after 8 years with Sony. Paige has multiple Aotearoa Music Award nominations, among many other accolades. It was so fun to chat to Paige about the creation of Hypocrite and her feelings around progressing her career as a fully independent artist. You can stream Paige's music on Spotify, Apple Music & YouTube now.
Martyn is an award winning music journalist from Wellington. The more immersed I became into the New Zealand scene, the more I would see Martyn's name popping up on my phone, and I mean that in the biggest compliment!
