Independent Music NZ have just announced this year’s recipient of the prestigious Classic Record. Look Blue Go Purple’s Compilation, released in 1991 via Flying Nun Records, takes out this year’s prize. Look Blue Go Purple played a pivotal role in the second wave of the pioneering indie rock movement known as the “Dunedin Sound”. In the overwhelmingly male-dominated Dunedin scene and wider indie music landscape, this all-female group stood out. Whilst the quintet certainly had the distinctive jangly, gently psychedelic, lo-fi Flying Nun sound, the combined vocals of Roughan, Webster and O’Malley created a synthesis that further set them apart. The Classic Record prize will be presented to Look Blue Go Purple as part of the 2024 Taite Music Prize celebration at Tāmaki Makaurau’s Q Theatre on Tuesday 23rd April. #lookbluegopurple #dunedinsound #flyingnunrecords #imnz #classicrecord #nzmusic #compilation #songbrokermusicpublishing
Songbroker welcomes Evan Rhys Born and raised in Taranaki, New Zealand, Evan is the former front man for old skool Waikato band, ‘Somersault’. Rhys has used his passion for music to help elevate the lives of those around him. He recorded and released an album of prisoners’ songs entitled, ‘If These Walls Could Speak’. He then went to work with Awa Productions on the critically acclaimed Maori Television series, ‘Songs From The Inside’. Meanwhile Evan’s own songs continued to take shape in the background and have slowly bubbled to the surface. His EP ‘Flickering Stars’ was released in February 2021. It features an eclectic mix of pop songs that are at once nostalgic and new in the same breath. There is life lived in these songs and a resonating hope that permeates through this EP. #evanrhysnz #songbrokermusicpublishing #singersongwriter
