I was woken this morning with the sweet tones of Dominion Road which was the intro to an interview with Don McGlashan (sp)
I was going to keep this a secret.... lol.... how can you keep the highest rating station a secret
Saturday afternoon for NZM.com people is "the place to be"

Home Grown 12.33 The Sampler
Nick Bollinger casts a critical ear over the latest CD offerings (nation and international)

1.06 Home Grown with Liz Barry
A comprehensive range of New Zealand music, covering an eclectic mix of genres, new releases and music industry information until 3.00pm
Stellar*, the feelers, Salmonella Dub, Che Fu, Bailterspace, The Nomad, The Clean, Garageland…..only two years ago such New Zealand music would never have been heard on National Radio. Now you can tune-in every Saturday afternoon at 1.06 pm and hear music by these artists and more
