MIKE HARDING: A renowned musical storyteller at ease with his instrument and his audience, Mike Harding’s mission for the last forty years has been to locate and perform the folk and popular songs of New Zealand’s past and present, from our colonial and folk roots to the Kiwi music of today.Mike’s recordings have often been played on RNZ National Radio. He compiled ‘When the Pakeha Sings of Home’ for Godwit Press and has made several series of programmes for National Radio on New Zealand music and has won a Folk Album of The Year award.Old School Arts CentreThurs May 9, 7.30, doors 7pmDoorsales $20 MAY LIVE & LOCAL Live & Local will be celebrating NZ Music Month with local musicians playing original songs and classic Kiwi covers. Musketeer is a live looping project by Sam M, a songwriter and electric guitarist. This is the ‘coming out’ set for this project and will feature a selection of upbeat, rocky, groovy, polyrhythmic tracks. Longtime Raglan resident & blues/country/rock maestro Dave Maybee is looking forward to playing a set of his originals, penned over a lifetime of recording & musical performance. The Blister Sisters will round out the evening with a bunch of Kiwi covers, played in their usual irreverent style. Never mind the songs harmed in the making of this set – it’s all about the outfits!Live & Local, Fri May 10, Raglan Old School Arts Centre7.30pm, doors open 7pmKoha entry See MoreSee Less

APRIL LIVE & LOCAL Another great mix of Raglan acts, with first time solo appearances from Fred’Mo Limbert and Brian Wilson, plus a new collaboration from Ngaronoa Renata.Ngaronoa Renata's set is titled “Tumanako: Hope”. A combination of pūrakau & oro (story-telling and sound), the set features pūrakau and poetry accompanied with taonga pūoro and waiata. You may have seen Fredmo (Freddy Limbert) behind the drums or perhaps on double bass Having performed with numerous artists and bands, including on international tours, Freddy has accumulated his own unique approach to music. For this rare solo set, Freddy says he will be “Plucking some stringed instruments and singing some songs from his travels”.Brian Wilson makes his first solo Live & Local appearance, having performed several times with ukulele group The Ragtimers and backing other acts. Self-described as an aging hippy, Brian says he’ll be playing “An eclectic range of songs, some you may have heard before, but you still may not recognise them!”Live & Local, Fri April 12, Raglan Old School Arts Centre7.30pm, doors open 7pmKoha entryProudly supported by Waikato District Creative Communities, Raglan Light & Sound, Mark Frost – Bayley’s Real Estate See MoreSee Less
