All About The Music
#justadded Yes not content with our #newmusicfriday additions we’ve just added a great new track from Hayley Kiyoko (@hayleykiyoko) called Curious. It’s off her brand new debut album Expectations. The former Disney star has put together some great pop tunes which can be enjoyed on their own merits. Pitchfork even gave it 6/10!!

Thirty Seconds To Mars – Rescue Me
James Bay – Us
Janine – Too Late
MØ – Nostalgia
We enjoyed this Easter treat last Friday morning for #newmusicfriday, here’s the music video from the band who headed straight into the Irish Top 50. Looking forward to the third album! Enjoy this track on NZ Net Radio – listen on Tunein for our great selection of music ad-free 24/7 throughout New Zealand!
What a fantastic feel good track to invigorate you late in the evening. This brings back memories of that early 80s TV series. At 132 beats per minute you’d struggle to stay still through this quintessential 80s classic!
Very excited about this new Kiwi single, exceptional stuff off Kings’ (@Kingsmusicnz) second album, coming sometime soon. First spin this hour!!!
If you’d asked me last week whether I’d be adding a brand new Hall & Oates number to our playlist I’d have said – ah, yes please but REALLY? Yes its happened, the first new song from Daryl Hall & John Oates (@halloates) in 14 years, released in time for a major 40 date North American tour with Train. This is actually a pretty neat number, a tribute to hometown Philadelphia, and even features a little tribute to one of their classic numbers. Listen in tomorrow morning after 7 for our first spin of this number.

We enjoyed High Horses on New Music Friday, now let’s meander through the whole album.
Macy’s career spans over a decade, with her first major label studio album being released in 2013 (Same Trailer Different Park) and she has been nominated and won plenty of awards including a Grammy nomination and has won the Academy of Country Music best album award for Same Trailer.
This new album clearly belongs in the Country genre but makes a clear effort to break through to pop as well, especially in the Bee Gees inspired High Horses. The lyrics are pretty cool too. Some of the material is a bit of a celebration of getting stoned which is a shame but aside from that is a great selection of songs. We’re going to enjoy poring through them this week.
The Tracklist
Its Friday so its time for five brand new tracks to get their first spin on the hour every hour from 9am. We’ll keep playing these tracks on New Zealand Net Radio, home of streaming radio ad free 24/7 throughout New Zealand.
Kasey Musgraves – High Horse
Great country pop crossover, this promises to be a huge song.
HIGH HØØPS – Body
Awesome to see a Kiwi artist on New Music Friday once again, this is a great piece of pop.
Dizzy – Pretty Things
Canadian rockers Dizzy have released some great tracks recently. We like this one!
Stan Walker – Thank You
And our second Kiwi artist, Stan Walker returns with another album of great songs.
Kodaline – Follow Your Fire
Another great track from the Dublin rockers.
Sigrid (@sigrid) is dropping tracks like … flies? Last week we had Raw, now another great piano ballad from last year’s ‘upcoming pop star’. This one’s called I Don’t Want to Know – enjoy! Listen on @tunein //tun.in/sfAtE

You’ve spent a year or so touring and promoting a massive album (number 3 in sales in the UK for 2014). If you’re George Ezra (@george_ezra)you understandably take some time out. Last year he headed to Barcelona to an Airbnb owned by the Tamara of this album’s title and spent a month working on these songs. Some critics have described them as “unflinchingly polite” and that this album will “doubtless be huge” whilst venomously making what sound like virtues to us into criticisms (The Guardian). We’ll enjoy these songs on their merits, working through the tracklist during our morning 9am – 12 pm programme. Hope you enjoy them! Oh and the tracklist:
