The Music<br />

Who are some of your favourite composers,<br />

musicians and bands from the past and present?<br />

to everything, if I had to choose favourites –<br />

Graham Brazier and Shona laing.<br />

Is there a particular song or musical passage that<br />

never fails to move you?<br />

I constantly have songs that come into my head<br />

and stay around me for a few days, Splinter song<br />

Costafine Town came into my head this morning<br />

and Peter and The Wolf.<br />

How would you describe your perfect day?<br />

every day.<br />

Finesse. It’s on the new album and is about<br />

selling paintings down in Southland.<br />

a dry towel.<br />
