Matiu Walters: Six60 Frontman on the new album coming in February

from Holiday Breakfast · host Newstalk ZB

For many, Six60 is an undeniable part of the New Zealand summer soundscape.   Their classics such as ‘Don’t Forget Your Roots’, ‘The Greatest’, and ‘Please Don’t Go’ are a staple of every backyard barbeque summer get together, and soon a few new songs will be joining the playlists.   Their fifth studio album ‘Right Here Right Now’ is set to be released in February, but two new singles are already available.   Frontman Matiu Walters told Andrew Dickens that hands down, it’s their best music ever.   “Quite often music can get quite tedious and boring if you’re just trying to plough through it all.”  “But the time feels right and we have some stories to tell, and it’s all captured in this new album and this new music.”   LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
