Introducing your local covers band: "The Meteors".

We do top 40 through to golden classics. We play weddings, birthdays, corporate events, bars and pubs :)

Jesse on vocals + guitar. Jimmy on keys + bass. We are great musicians who have worked for the likes of Dave Dobbyn, Neil Finn, Taylor Swift, Lime Cordiale, and many more. We are experienced multi instrumentalists: expect a dash of flute and saxophone, as well. If you're planning a dance floor, adding drums (Meteors 3) is highly recommended!

For more info and videos please have a look at our website! www.themeteors.co.nz...

Cheers! Jimmy

The Resene Upcycling Awards are coming back this month, the third year in a row! Watch this space and get prepared for the announcement; there are great prizes up for grabs.

Upcycling is the term used for taking a preloved item and transforming it - whether it's for a new purpose altogether, or just to give it an ‘extreme makeover'. Consider using the school holidays to get Upcycling with the smaller members of your household - or use the next rainy day to drag out the paint and your creativity!

In the meantime, check out some of the creative cookies from last year.
