NOVEMBER Live & Local
PARABOLA WEST
Parabola West is the artist name of Raglan-based singer & songwriter Amy Tucker West. Her sound is a lush mix of piano, Celtic folk, and electronica with a dash of fantasy. “Think of it like mixing Loreena McKennitt with your favourite female-fronted synthpop band and then adding a dash of Middle-earth.”
West is currently preparing the release of her debut album, scheduled to drop in early 2022. This album is entirely recorded at 432Hz to create healing frequencies.
SASHA KIRKWOOD
Growing up in Whaingaroa, Raglan, Sasha has been constantly surrounded by an incredible music scene and amazingly talented locals her whole life, inspiring her to pursue performing herself. She enjoys busking at local markets and performing in musicals.
Sasha began writing original music when she was around 12 years old, and hasn’t stopped since. Her songs are about whanau, friendships or hard times we’ve all been through.
MARTEN TEN BROEK
Marten Ten Broek has no single moment in actual silence. Hearing damage has cicadas zipping as they do in summer, even in the midst of the stillest winter night. The cicadas never stop, never. The only way to drown them is with guitars.
