Rock and pop on East FM, Saturday, high noon...

Phil from Farm Cove

Two completely different music acts who have in common they’re on the brink of new horizons – powerful rockers Black Smoke Trigger, and the flourishing Raging Flowers - feature on tomorrow’s She’ll Be Right on Saturdays Show with PJ Taylor, midday to 4pm (NZ time, April 13) on East FM.

Two completely different music acts who have in common they’re on the brink of new horizons – powerful rockers Black Smoke Trigger, and the flourishing Raging Flowers - feature on tomorrow’s She’ll Be Right on Saturdays Show with PJ Taylor, midday to 4pm (NZ time, April 13) on East FM.

There’ll also be new singles by Fin Rah Zel, and Karra Rhodes, and we’re overdue to play a few songs from In Green, the debut solo EP by drummer Taylor Griffin and a band of Kiwi legends.

We’ll be talking live at 2pm with Charlie Wallace of Black Smoke Trigger following the release of “an undeniably anthemic rock radio banger”, new single K.M.T.L.

Blackout Music NZ says “the Hawke’s Bay four-piece heavy-rock outfit continue to ride the high of their driving rock, anchored by the distinctive guitar work of Wallace and the commanding vocals of Baldrick, combined with their pummelling rhythm section, bassist Dan Fulton and drummer Josh Te Maro.

“Fast becoming known for not only churning out certified 10/10 arena ready rock bangers, Black Smoke Trigger are also quickly garnering a reputation for creating arresting and often death-defying music videos.”

K.M.T.L follows the success of earlier singles, Proof Of Life, Perfect Torture, and The Way Down, the video which saw the band perform at night, atop the tallest building in the Southern Hemisphere, Sky Tower, with Wallace jumping off the edge, shredding a guitar solo whilst plummeting 630-feet and has now clocked up more than 1.3 million views on YouTube.

“The release sees Black Smoke Trigger continue to deliver on their promise of high-energy rock music that’s both entertaining and deeply relatable,” Blackout Music says.

Black Smoke Trigger are supporting Filter on the Australian and NZ legs of their Algorithm World Tour, and hit the road supporting Bruce Dickinson The Mandrake Project in the UK, France, and Holland this May. www.blacksmoketrigger.com....

Their debut, full length album Horizons is released later this year.

It’s an exciting time for Raging Flowers, aka Amy Wang, as she’s just released her debut four-song self-titled EP, and she’s joining us live in the East FM studio at 12.30pm to tell us all about it.

Chinese-Kiwi singer-songwriter-producer of Pakuranga, Raging Flowers’ main instrument is electric guitar.
Her website, www.ragingflowers.com... says: ‘She makes groovy genre-blending music that can be classified as jazzy self-help indie pop.’

‘Raging Flowers has had an unusual start to her music career. Although she's been a long-time music learner, she pursued a career in tech. She became a star programmer in various software fields including music, blockchain and AI. She even built and launched her own music-learning software, MusoPipe, while working part-time as a software engineer and training hard as a professional Muay Thai kick-boxing athlete.
‘Eventually, she got burnt out and had to stop to care for her body and mind. She leaned into creativity, got in touch with her feelings, got therapy, and finally came out the other side feeling recharged and wholesome.’

East FM is East Auckland’s fair-dinkum 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. Providing a platform for NZ music and performing artists to exhibit their talents since ages ago. Ka pai. – PJ
