Show Notes
We’re at the end of New Zealand Music Month. The annual celebration of local music has gone by with almost no restrictions, the first time in two years that the industry has been able to enjoy some stability.
Yet even as we learn to live with Covid, every time concerts are planned, album launches are scheduled, or a festival date is announced – there is still uncertainty for punters and performers alike about how it’ll all play out.
The path forwards appears to be restriction-free, but how quickly can New Zealand music bounce back?
Today, NZ Herald Culture Editor Karl Puschmann joins Damien to discuss what the future holds for the local music industry.
