Mel Parsons: Kiwi singer-songwriter on the success of her new album 'Castle Hill'

This week, Lyttleton singer-songwriter Mel Parsons has landed a big milestone - after seven albums, she’s hit the top spot on the Kiwi charts. Castle Hill has debuted at number one on not only the Top 20 Aotearoa Albums Chart, but the Top 40 Albums chart. She says she's happy to see people enjoying it - and her kids appreciate how high it got on the charts.  "The kids all think that we're rich now, that's their kind of marker.
