Troy Kingi invited us to waste a Thursday evening with him and his band as they celebrate the release of Troy latest, Time Wasters: Soundtrack To Current Day Meanderings. We did some meandering of our own as a DJ spun tunes before Troy and his crew took to the stage shortly after 9:30.
Ten out of Ten is how I would rate last night's album release party of ‘Year of The Ratbags and Their Musty Theme Songs', the 6th in Troy Kingi's 10 albums, 10 genres, 10 years series. A stunning set of 80's inspired synth-pop filled Auckland's Powerstation, and the crowd was loving it.
Troy Kingi spreads his musical canvas wide, in time and space, in featuring his folk album Black Sea Golden Ladder released a year ago. It was supposed to be Troy and Delaney Davidson, but Delaney’s not here! even though he’s furiously banging on the Town Hall door trying to get in.
Continuing the Taster Series of the Hawkes Bay Arts Festival, this time around saw the return of Troy Kingi to the ToiToi stage, after his appearance in the last “undiluted” Festival nearly two years ago.
