Episode Eighteen: Brandon, Mo & Joe (No Wyld)
No Wyld are Brandon, Mo & Joe. Three fella’s who met while studying at Auckland University, they quickly became friends and started playing music together.
Their track Odyssey was placed on a McDonald's ad during the 2014 Winter Olympic Games which got them attention quick, fast. They took a big leap of faith, and moved to the USA. It seems to be working for them so far too. Since arriving to they’ve signed a deal with Columbia Records in New York, set up their own studio to work on a full length record and they’ve just signed a publishing deal with Sony ATV .
In this episode we chat about their new lives in New York and the music that’s influenced them along the way. It’s all coming up on A Kiwi Abroad.

Episode Seventeen: Zara Mirkin
Zara Mirkin was the girl who naturally looked cool beyond her years, she snuck into fashion show’s, after-parties and nightclubs well before she was allow, but everyone was cool with it. In fact, it probably helped her to land her first job designing for Stolen Girlfriends Club.
Since leaving SGC she's gone from strength to strength as a stylist. She's work on shoots for everyone including Oyster magazine, Huffer, Lonely Hearts, Lorde, to name a few. She's now got big american brands, artists and companies knocking at her door asking to add her touch, so it's fair to say she's a busy human.
In this episode, I talk to Zara about all things living in the land of the free, her favourite places, work and of course NZ songs that have been there every step of the way.

She’s starred in roles on Neighbours to Xena, The Tribe to Outrageous Fortune and won Best Actress at the NZ film awards for her leading role in My Wedding And Other Secrets. Very flash.

Episode Eleven: James McDonald
James McDonald aka Jimmy Mac has done the round’s in many bands, playing the drums. Popstrangers to The DFDHD’s, Ruby Frost & Arms Reach however it was most likely his comedic value and good nature that got him the gig playing synths for the one and only Lorde.
Learning piano at a young age from his mother and quickly jumping into the NZ jazz scene with influence from his dad, James has always had the beat in his step so it seems only natural that he’s now a full-time touring musician. Over the next hour Jimmy talks me through some of his favourite NZ tunes and give’s us a little insight into the touring life.

Episode Ten: Alisa Xayalith
Young Blood catapulted them from local to global success. Two albums and three years of touring later, we find leading lady Alisa Xayalith of The Naked And Famous still just as excited about music. Alisa had a keen interest in music and knew from a young age she wanted to chase it down the rabbit hole. Good thing she did too.
Alisa met Thom Powers at Rangitoto College and it was at Mainz where they befriended Aaron Short with whom they went on to form the band with. TNAF left New Zealand in 2010 and haven’t really been back since with a new life on the road and abroad working on music. Now at the end of touring their second record In Rolling Waves, Alisa has a new apartment in L.A’s suburb of Los Feliz, where I talked to her about musical influences and the life she’s been living in the land of the free.

"You'll be back in a year, I bet my gumboots on it."
Mark De Clive Lowe has spent a good portion of his years abroad. His dash in London lasted 10 years before moving to Los Angeles in 2009. Over this time Mark has released 11 albums, toured the globe and worked with some prolific musicians including Lauryn Hill, Sammy Figueroa who played with Miles Davis and bass player Pino Palladino known for his work with D'Angelo/The Who.
Mark’s history roll’s deep with the NZ scene too, working with everyone from Sonny Sagala AKA Dei Hamo to Nathan Haines, Mannuel Bundy to Tha Feelstyle and keeping Dallas, the Fat Freddy’s crew and most of Auckland and Wellington in close company. Mark also used to trade off records with another well known kiwi, Zane Lowe back in High School at Auckland Grammar.

Episode Eight: Aaron Short
"Well you can say goodbye to Flat Whites, that's for sure."
Aaron Short’s intention wasn't to be in the limelight, he was quite content working away in a studio producing and engineering music. However when opportunity presents itself to tour the world and have some crazy life experiences you’re going to make the most of it. What started out as a recording assignment at MAINZ, quickly lead to the humble beginnings of The Naked & Famous.
With the band Aaron has released two critically acclaimed records, taken home more awards than you could fit in the chilly bin and played all the big festies including Glastonbury, Lollapalooza and 2014's Coachella.
Now coming off the back of touring the world in support of their second record, ‘In Rolling Waves’, Aaron is based in Los Angeles where he continues to work on music and preaches the good word of the Flat White as a kiwi abroad.

Episode Six: Bradley Hanan Carter
"You'll be back in Whangarei in a year, tops."
Bradley Hanan Carter first came to America well over a decade ago with his band Stereogram who had sign a deal with the big guns, Capitol Records. Their video was nominated for a grammy, they toured the world playing to many and lived the dreams of a young musicians. Since their natural conclusion around 2007, Bradley has gone on to follow other musical pathways and is now settled on his project Black English. As well as front the band he's stepped into the role of producing music, recently finishing his first record for another artist, Mynabirds.
Bradley has somewhat paved the way for many kiwi musicians who now live in Los Angeles setting up a network in the neighbourhood of Echo Park. He even let me stay on his couch a couple nights when I was a young and over-excited teenager on my first overseas adventure (thanks again).
In this conversation we go over the music that has played a role in his life and look into the influences and experiences on which he derives for his own music.
