Youth and experience shine on East FM, Saturday arvo...
Another rising star and a classic Kiwi album hit the spotlight on tomorrow’s She’ll Be Right on Saturdays Show with PJ Taylor, 3-7pm (NZ time) on East FM.
To make us feel better after the sad news that the Auckland Blues Festival is postponed until the new year, young gun Marianne Leigh is returning to tell us about her new single CRAZY GF – and we get a first live-to-air play (they used to call that an exclusive, back in the day).
Marianne Leigh will be live in the studio from 4pm to bring us up to date with what’s been happening in her exciting musical life.
And, from 5pm, we’re spinning in entirety John Hanlon’s famous album Higher Trails, as we build up for his special concert at The Lounge in Howick on November 19. Higher Trails was this country’s best album in 1975.
Marianne, at 19, is from Auckland and already has 10 songs on Spotify. That’s cool. There’s other platforms, too. CRAZY GF, officially out on November 18, is “compelling punk-pop” produced by Emily Wheatcroft-Snape and Nate Selway.
Getting serious, the track “gives a voice for the uncomfortable emotions we suppress, the lyrics untangling toxicity, jealousy, and spite”.
She says it’s a new direction in styles, “steering away” from her indie-pop roots.
“The crazy girlfriend character in the media is a common trope, and something that has always bothered me. The joke is outdated, and a ridicule of female emotional expression. I wanted to write a song about this character and my frustrations surrounding it.”
Marianne Leigh celebrates her release of CRAZY GF at UNDERGROUND alongside Kiwi acts Wednesday’s Girlfriend and ISLA on Nov 18.
East FM is East Auckland’s diverse community-powered public service radio station, on 88.1FM and 107.1FM on local frequencies, nationally and globally at www.eastfm.nz... and on app iHeart Radio.
She’ll Be Right - it’s all about the vibe; it’s all about the groove. And this Saturday, we’re heading to higher trails. – PJ
