It’s all about the strings, as we feature traditional Irish music (2023 style) of Gráda, and Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra principal harp Ingrid Bauer, on tomorrow’s She’ll Be Right on Saturdays Show with PJ Taylor, 3pm to 7pm (NZ time, Sept 30) on East FM.

There’s also new tracks recently released around the world - all forms - that need airing, as well as concert news and all-time favourites.
Gráda has two Kiwis – Gerry Paul and Andrew Laking – and we’re talking live with Gerry at 5pm about their upcoming NZ tour that brings the lads together again with Irish musicians Nicola Joyce, Alan Doherty and Tola Custy after a dozen years.
We’ll also chat with Ingrid Bauer at 4pm, as she’ll be in the spotlight when the APO stages In Your Neighbourhood: Queen of Harps, in Howick at All Saints Church on Tuesday, October 10.
Gráda had a great run touring internationally from 2001-2011, performing in more than 1000 cities in 30 countries. Highlights: concerts at Sydney Opera House, Royal Glasgow Concert Hall, Ireland’s National Concert Hall, and headlining multiple European and American folk festivals.
Gráda’s most recent work Natural Angle was voted a top folk album in the USA by NPR / Folk Alley and the IMA music awards. The previous album, Cloudy Day Navigation, appeared multiple times in Irish Music's Top 10 charts, and there’s been glowing reviews.
Their sound is rooted in Irish trad, drawing in folk, jazz, world music, and Americana, while live shows are described as energetic, with an improvisation element that makes them unique in the trad music world.
Gràda 2023 Aotearoa Reunion Tour dates in October: 18 - San Fran, Wellington; 19 - Theatre Royal, New Plymouth; 20 - John Gallagher Academy, Hamilton; 21 - Tuning Fork, Auckland; 22 - Turner Centre, Kerikeri; 26 - Tauranga Arts Festival; 27 – TBA, Hawkes Bay; 29 – TBA, Nelson; 28 - Little Theatre, Lower Hutt. Tickets online at gradamusic.ie
The APO says principal harp Ingrid Bauer “has brought together a wildly diverse group of composers to show off the huge range of her instrument. There’s more to the harp than angel wings. The cool breeziness of Ibert’s Trio is juxtaposed with Gubaidulina’s mystical spirituality, and if you didn’t think the harp could do the rumba, think again!”
In Your Neighbourhood: Queen of Harps: 6.30pm, Tues, Oct 10 at All Saints Church, Howick. Tickets online at apo.co.nz/queen-of-harps - $28 adult/senior, $15 student/child.
East FM is East Auckland’s fair-dinkum community-powered public service radio station, on 88.1FM and 107.1FM on local frequencies, nationally and globally at www.eastfm.nz... and on app iHeart Radio.
She’ll Be Right - it’s all about the vibe; it’s all about the groove. And this Saturday, we’re hearing new spins on old music. – PJ

The fact that everyone taking part knew or knows a friend or family member affected by the disease gave the walk extra purpose.
September is also the month for Ryman’s Everest-themed virtual walking challenge, where residents attempt to meet their target of either 64.4km or 128.7km.
