bLine #10: Music Festivals

This episode of bLine slaps on some sunscreen, environmentally friendly glitter, and its most colourful pants to dive into Aotearoa’s struggling grassroots festival scene. We investigate what’s bringing down these giants of local culture, what could be done to stem the bleeding, who has (and hasn’t) taken steps to preserve them, and what lessons the next generation can take. A warm thanks to all of our guests, John Minty from Splore, Dee from Twisted Frequency, Rob Warner from AUM, Mia from Welcome to Nowhere, and Blink from Camp A Low Hum. Happy listening!
