Give It A Whirl

Kiwi rock music is loaded with great sounds and stories, as this collection demonstrates. The Give It A Whirl collection is built around the 2003 TV series, which explores five decades of popular music in Aotearoa. Debbie Harwood profiles Kiwi female musicians in radio show Give It A Girl (comprising 17 interviews, of around eight minutes each). Plus check out exclusive material: 24 extended interviews with musicians, recorded for Give It A Whirl, and backgrounders by three special guests: Whirl's co-writer Michael Higgins goes behind the scenes on the show, Hello Sailor's Harry Lyon jumps back in time, and Debbie Harwood talks female musicians.
