Held from the 11th-17th September, Māori Language week gives us a chance to celebrate our beautiful national language. Maybe you'll be celebrating by watching the Toku Reo videos and using Te Aka (Maōri Dictionary) to improve your knowledge, or maybe you've found a buddy for the week that will only kōrero in te reo with you. Ka pai!

There’s a new word puzzle that’s a little “anagram-istic”, a tad “Boggle-ing” and a bit harder than both. It’s aptly named, The Hard Word.
You get one scramble of letters, one cryptic clue and one tense minute to unscramble the letters and guess the answer.
Proudly brought to you by Neighbourly, The Hard Word can be found 9am weekdays on Stuff. Give it a go today - if you dare…

New sounds is the theme, with on-the-rise Kiwi music artists Cheap Sav For Dead Friends, Jarrod Ross, and Sam Heselwood, and our friends Albi and The Wolves, featuring on tomorrow’s She’ll Be Right on Saturdays Show with PJ Taylor, 3pm to 7pm (NZ time, September 16) on East FM.

There’s also a whole bunch of new tracks recently released around the world - all styles - that need airing, as well as concert news and all-time favourites.
Continuing the exciting time for Albi and The Wolves, they’ve got another new single just out today, Next To Me, which we’ll spin and it includes the full big-band version, in the lead-up to their new album Light After Dark releasing mid-October.
We’ll be talking with Jarrod Ross at 5pm, and spinning his brand new single Another Reason, as well as his previous solo releases Bad Habits and Hail, as we track his musical odyssey, which includes a new album on the horizon.
He’s been guitarist-frontman for Auckland rock band Valedictions and bass player for Flying Nun-signed indie-rockers Pan Am.
Blackout Music says: ‘Diverting from the rock n’ roll he’s known for, this time Ross demonstrates another dimension of his musical ability with acoustic guitar, piano, and vocal harmonies shaping the song into a classy slice of reflective indie folk-pop.
‘Penned and meticulously crafted in Jarrod’s home studio, the drums are once again provided by Barry Blackler, who mixed and mastered the track, with Ross crediting Blacklers’ experience and intuitive ability to hear what’s between the layers, in bringing more of the emotive feels to the music.
‘A prolific and clever songwriter with a keen sense of melody, writing and recording music is Ross’ craft and his passion as he continues on his solo musical journey.’
Gotta like the lads of Auckland four-piece Cheap Sav For Dead Friends (yes, what a name!).
They’re fun – tight, energised indie pop-rock, and we’ll be talking live at 4pm with co-lead-vocalist / guitarist / songwriter Joe Dekkers-Reihana, and playing in entirety their new six-song EP including first single Emotional.
As Blackout Music says of Cheap Sav For Dead Friends, ‘the EP showcases the band’s versatility, heart, self-deprecating humour, and keen ear for a catchy hook’.
Jack Buchanan is the other frontman, with rhythm section Sam Clavis on bass and Taylor Hall on drums described as (lol) ‘one of the tightest and best-looking in the biz’.
Jack says: “We have a pretty wide range of influences, and as a result our catalogue of songs is pretty sonically diverse. We don’t let ourselves get locked into one sound, style, or genre, which keeps things exciting for us.”
Sam Heselwood, of Christchurch / Ōtautahi, has released a sublime and heartfelt new five-track EP, Home Is Where The Heart Is, which comes after No. 1 Hot NZ Single success with Home and follow-up How’s Heaven.
Home Is Where The Heart Is was made with NZ On Air support, recorded at The Piano studio, produced by Terence Charles O’Connor, with Struan Finlay on mixing and mastering.
The rugby player turned songwriter’s songs have accumulated millions of streams, including more than two-million on single Book Full Of Answers.
Now the EP is out, adventurous young singer-songwriter Sam’s hit the road with guitar in hand to explore new paths in the UK.
