Occasionally, we all feel unwell. Periodically, we might have a headache, catch a cold, or burn a fever. Sometimes, we break some bones, suffer more severe internal issues or are diagnosed with some devastating illness. When this happens, most of us will seek out a general practitioner, a specialist or a surgeon and, subsequently, receive some medication to help us recover.
In 2019, when I was 18 years old, I moved to Auckland city to study popular music at Auckland uni. I was fresh out of high school and until then had lived with my parents and brother in Waiomu. Our house was surrounded by bush with big gardens and a stream in the backyard. It was just a short walk down the road to New Zealand.
When I visited Lutzotto’s studio for the first time, I came across something pleasing for a Virgo punk rocker: organised chaos. A small house/art studio smartly positioned and built with recycled and reused materials in one of the most special places in the Coromandel region: the Blue Fridge Valley.
I sit down to write this with a song stuck in my head …I’m not entirely sure whose version of the song, penned by Marvin Gaye and Kim Weston, it is that’s on repeat in my brain, but you know the one.
Prisoners of War love playing live music. Live music is a really important aspect of how we share our creativity, and it always ends up being super fun for everyone. So, for these reasons, we are always super keen to play more shows in front of more and more people, branching out to different areas such as Hamilton and Tauranga to get different audiences.
