Jenny Mitchell - Carterton events Centre this FRIDAY 23rd
Wellington’s Jenny Mitchell is bringing her award-winning folk/alt-country sound to the Carterton Events Centre this Friday. Jenny will be joined by Wellington musicians Michael Muggeridge and Aaron Stewart – and special guest, Jenny’s younger sister, Nicola Mitchell.
Originally from Gore, Jenny’s music defies easy categorisation but if you admire music by genre-defying artists from Emmylou Harris to Kasey Chambers, you’ll love Jenny. Described by Rolling Stone as, “her best work yet,” her new album, Tug of War, was a 2022 Aotearoa Music Award Nominee and is home to the 2022 APRA Best Country Song; Trouble Finds a Girl.
The Bush & the Birds Tour is an extension of track 11 from her most recent album; a song that pays tribute to the sister’s late Grandad Bruce and a celebration of the love of the land, and the creatures that live in it, that he handed down to the Mitchell whānau. In the spirit of his legacy, Jenny will be donating 10% of show profits directly to Forest & Bird; NZ’s largest independent conservation organisation.

Builder Wanted or seeking builder (LBP).
We are looking for a semi-retired builder or solo LBP to supervise / co-work with me while I undertake an extension project as a self-build . Rates to be negotiated prior to commencement. Currently in the design stage at present with Architect. I have experience from past house builds so not a raw beginner, both in design and construction.
Thanks Phil
Wild weather in Wellington
Wellington’s wild weather is really making itself known — trains and flights are being cancelled, and drivers are being reminded to take it slow and stay safe out there.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.6% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.9% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.5% ... It is complicated
