Shout-out to New Zealand folk:
If you can spare a moment, please can you tell me some of your favourite bands and musical artists from your country? Any genre is good!
I want to make a playlist and I'd rather hear about what you love and explore from there than asking Google. ❤️
Edit: After all of your suggestions so far, I have a 7 hour playlist of entirely-new-to-me music and I'm particularly in love with These Four Walls, The Beths, and Coast Arcade!
@miffyhelen Late because I despise composing complex replies on mobile. Here I'm focussing on bandcamp. Buy their music! Some of these musicians have been mentioned already.

@bigblen Oh wow, thank you for all of these! I've added a few tracks to the epic playlist, bought one album from Bandcamp, and saved loads more to buy on the next Bandcamp Friday!
Nadia Reid and Luke Hurley were particularly special. ❤️
