Features and Events
Live On The Beach
Every May, to mark NZ Music Month, The Beach presents Live On The Beach, a series featuring Waiheke musicians playing live in our studio. The series was started in 2003 and proved so popular it became an annual event. Throughout the history of Live On The Beach we have tried to showcase musicians who don't get the opportunity to perform in front of a audience on the Island whether it be because of their age, or because they are playing music that doesn't fit the solo acoustic blues format favoured by many of the local venues. Most of these performances have been recorded, and many are now available to listen to on the internet or download. Find more info and audio on The Beach Radio Blog here and here.
