95bFM

Blind Mango Chutney takes you on a journey through the jazz universe.

Joining him in the studio this week is evergreen vocalist local legend Linn Lorkin, telling stories and painting colours from a whole lifetime in music—and *singing* her newest book: Linn Lorkin’s Song Book, lyrics referencing life from Grey Lynn to K Rd.

DJ Sassy pops in to fix microphones and deliver the Gig Guide and general sunniness.

And Blind Mango continues the tribute to Frank Gibson Jr., because there’s so much to play, and to others to whom the Grim Reaper has been unkind this week: Sly Stone, who needs no introduction, and trumpeter Al Foster, best known for his work with Miles Davis.

The 95bFM Jazz Show is sponsored by San Ray on Ponsonby Rd, eulogised earlier by Linn Lorkin

Radio Mother Host, Joel, speaks to Alex Cormack and Moeata Tararo about TAKAHOA, an upcoming coming-of-age YouTube miniseries that follows five young people navigating love, family drama, and self-discovery, showcasing the perspectives of Māori, Pasifika, Pan-Asian, rangatahi, women, and queer individuals!

You can donate to their crowdfunding campaign for season one here.

A bunch of new songs and a chat with Alex Cormack and Moeata Tararo about TAKAHOA. Whakarongo mai!

Thanks to Southbound Records!

Crying Ivy comes up on Fancy New Band to absolutely shred with their heavy psych rock, the same week that their debut single hit number one on the 95bFM top ten! Thanks to NZ on Air
