Kiwi musicians feature on East FM, Saturday arvo from 3pm
On-the-rise singer-songwriter Jack Robertson and upcoming concerts and festivals feature on tomorrow’s She’ll Be Right on Saturdays Show with PJ Taylor, 3-7pm (NZ time), December 10 on East FM.
And to remember a great NZ musician and character, Hamish Kilgour, we’ll play tracks by The Clean including the original vinyl EP from 1981, Boodle Boodle Boodle, at 5pm.
Jack Robertson, of Howick, released Broke and Broken in 2019, his first project made up of songs written and recorded from his bedroom. With a raw sound and themes of love and hurt, he generated a following in this country and around the world.
This year, he’s put out new atmospheric indie-pop singles LY and Something You Like, as well as acoustic pop-folk ballad Everyday People and collaborative alternative rock song Dim Lights.
We’ll be talking with Jack at 4pm to hear his music story and he’s also going to play live.
Through tomorrow’s show we’ll also play tracks by The Rvmes and Odds & Ends, who are playing at The Rvmes’ release party for their new album Simple Things at The Anthology Lounge on Karangahape Road on Saturday, with Makeshift Parachutes and DJ Bax too. Tickets at www.eventbrite.co.nz...
And to continue getting excited about the Groove in the Grapes concert at Turanga Creek Winery in Whitford on Saturday, January 21, there’ll be tracks from headliners Stellar*.

We’ll also go through the great line-up for the Auckland Folk Festival on January 27-30 (www.aucklandfolkfestival.co.nz)

She’ll Be Right - it’s all about the vibe; it’s all about the groove. And this Saturday, we’re looking towards holiday season. – PJ
🪱🐦 When are you the most productive? 🌙🦉
The Post has been diving into our daily habits, and research suggests being an early bird or a night owl isn’t just a choice—it’s biology! We all have that specific time when our brains finally "click" into gear.
This raises a big question for the modern workplace. To get the best out of everyone, should employers accommodate our natural body clocks? This idea is at the heart of the four-day work week and flexible scheduling movements.
We want to hear from you:
1. When does your brain "click" into gear?
2. Would a flexible (or shortened) schedule change the way you work?
Poll: Is Auckland’s economy improving?
The latest reporting from The Post suggests a wave of optimism for 2026. With interest rates finally heading south, businesses are feeling more positive. But for many on the ground, the real-world recovery feels a bit like a slow-moving commute on Auckland's motorways.
