Learning about Jazmine Mary, on East FM, Saturday from 3pm
It’s with old-time folkster joy that we have a rising star on the NZ Music scene, Jazmine Mary, as featured artist on tomorrow’s She’ll Be Right on Saturdays Show with PJ Taylor, 3pm to 7pm (NZ time, June 24) on East FM.
We’ll be talking live with Jazmine Mary at 3.30pm, chatting about their (yes, it’s plural) album, Dog, that’s getting rave reviews. We’ll go on a voyage of discovery and play most of the tracks.
Since its release a few weeks back, it has been No. 1 on the SRN chart, No. 5 on the Alt-Radio airplay chart, and in the Top 20 Hot NZ single chart.
They’re about to embark on a national tour, and the Auckland tour date is with the amazing Julia Deans, who is opening, on July 8 at The Hollywood Cinema, in good-old Avondale. That will be a very special double-header concert. For tickets:

Jazmine Mary was the 2022 award winner of the Auckland Live best independent debut, at the Taite Music Awards. jazminemary.bandcamp.com...
For the remainder of She’ll Be Right, we’ll take a tour around other musical neighbourhoods and no doubt play some old-new material acquired at the third East FM Vinyl Records and Music Memorabilia Fair at Howick Information Centre, Saturday, June 24, from 8am to 2.30pm. Free entry. Bargains galore, we reckon.
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. And tomorrow we discover Jazmine Mary. – PJ

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
