Sweet As Kiwi Show
Two hours of the best music New Zealand has ever made.
The anthems you grew up with, the artists about to break, and the stories behind both.
From Studio 309 on the Coromandel, to every corner of Aotearoa —
this is the Sweet As Kiwi Show.
...we love a good kōrero - this podcast are the artists themselves talking about their music, their inspirations, their stories.
