Add to watch list

Series two of this studio-based series showcases conversations and music from Kiwi creatives. Over 13 episodes, journalist and former Listener editor Finlay Macdonald interviews artists of all stripes; poets, songwriters, actors, painters and beyond, including Bic Runga, Scribe, poet Michele Leggott, Sam Neill and choreographer Raewyn Hill. Episodes begin with a studio interview, a musical interlude follows and a final interview completes the show. The guests discuss their history and the realities of sustaining an artistic career in Aotearoa. Macdonald brings up the work each artist is best-known for, and asks about the ways they keep inspiration alive. Check out this episode guide.

...I really loved it but after a while often when you have the dream job, it turns out not be the dream job really — that however much you love music, maybe selling it is not really the ideal thing.
– Writer Paula Morris on why she left her job in the music industry to become a writer, episode three
