🚨📢‼️ this is NOT a meme ‼️📢🚨
You are listening to Bub(z) and da Ouncle$, an ensemble of dazzlingly talented artists, musicians and craftspeople rendering my naive ‘graphic scores’ and scrawl into a beautiful set of improvisations. It is such an honour to work with them and experience their interpretation.
Bub(z) are @hinepunui@isaac814115@alistairfraserpuoro and yours truly, and with the mighty @ben_lemi on the console, the work we tracked this weekend at Te Ahumairangi studio in Massey’s @toi_rauwharangi marks the completion of tracking for my first album.
There’s still so much work to be done on this and the Unknot component of the album, but I will have a single soon which features the work of both Bub(z) and the Unknot ensembles.
Thank you for watching, listening and reading. Hit me with any questions you have except for anything regarding memes.

Day 13 / 30 look I’m not sure what’s happened here but this was Paris and now it’s just 3 more shows until the end of the tour… I’ve definitely slept more this leg and we’ve had some love/hate moments with our camper van that we’re travelling and sleeping in.
I’ll do a few vlogs to sum up Europe and Scandinavia but for now here was Paris 🇫🇷
Days 11 & 12 of Dateline’s first ever international tour - Tourcoing 🇫🇷
We had a devastating start to the show day with the @thebeths van getting broken into over night in Lille 😔 the instruments were sentimental and priceless, but the backline was generously last minute supplied through a pal - somehow a beautiful vibe was pulled together for the show with the power of friendship, beautiful buildings, and our first proper / not gas station meal in a few weeks.
Paris is next!
@dateline3.0 en première partie de @thebeths à Paris 🗼au @letrabendo .
Le quatuor néo-zélandais a séduit dès les premières notes. @kathy.at.ihug.co.nz , entre douceur et énergie, a mené un set sincère.
Des titres comme « Drama » et « Hey! You Look Good » ont marqué les esprits.
Une belle découverte venue de Te Whanganui-a-Tara.

Day 11 / 30 of @dateline3.0 first ever international tour - Brighton the last stop of the UK leg. MVP’s of this gig: @callumdbeattie & @m8linmilner for hocking merch all night long and even bootlegging it in the car park after the gig curfew 🫶
Next Tourcoing and Paris!
Day 10 / 30 of @dateline3.0 first ever international tour, with @thebeths@roundhouseldn 😱 3000 people saying hello to @kathy.at.ihug.co.nz daughter Frida is something to remember!
I’m a little behind on the tour diaries as the London show was so fun I needed to sleep a lot afterwards. We’re currently in Tourcoing realising we don’t speak any French, but one more UK vlog to come - Brighton 🇬🇧
Day 9 / 30 of @dateline3.0 first ever international tour - Birmingham, not gonna lie I dropped the ball on the vlog game a little yesterday I had a sore shoulder and really needed a nap. Vlog today of us all rocking out is courtesy of the one and only @benbensinclair 🤘
Tonight we play to 3000 people at a sold out @roundhouseldn 😱 we have 100 new shirts that are currently on my lap as we drive to the venue + hats + cool stickers, can’t wait!
