OTHER FUTURES BIG BAND

Other Futures Big Band is a new and ongoing project by Daniel Hayles that looks to honour the big band tradition while platforming music and artists both native to and unexplored within the style. Expect to hear highlights from the height of the swing era next to new interpretations of original music from Aotearoa. You can anticipate steaming and reverent swing alongside triumphant soul and dripped-out hip-hop cuts. Episode one proudly features: Zoe Moon (vocals), Wallace Gollan (vocals), Lauren Ellis (USA) (drums), Cory Champion (vibraphone and percussion)…raging with a hand-picked, primed and ravenous 17-piece big band.
