Description

While this band's name and their self-titled album might sound like one of those mad lib word jumbles, it isn't. Though they genuinely hailed from the far-away land of New Zealand, this unlikely group of musicians landed in Memphis on a whim with the hopes of recording an album. In the very capable hands of producer Natalie Rosenberg, the band, best known for working in Playboy clubs around the country, expanded their repertoire to deliver a dizzying kaleidoscope of sounds, including psychedelic rock, swing, fusion, and more. Join host Jared "Jay B." Boyd and special guest Natalie Rosenberg for an exclusive listening experience and discussion of the influential album. WYXR's Stereo Sessions presented by MEMPHO featuring New Zealand Trading Company's 1970 self-titled debut album is sponsored by VIA Productions and Crosstown Brewing Co.
