It is going to be a big week. APRA are set to induct The Fourmyula into the New Zealand Music Hall of Fame at this weeks Silver Scroll Awards in Auckland.
They will join the prestigious musical honours board that includes Johnny Devlin, Jordan Luck, Ray Columbus and the Invaders, Jules and Linda Topp (The Topp Twins), Straitjacket Fits, Hirini Melbourne and Richard Nunns and the soon to be inducted Shihad.
The New Zealand Music Hall of Fame is produced by APRA and RIANZ to honour those New Zealander's that have impacted New Zealand life through music.
And this week also marks the release of what is set to be a must have addition to fans of TrinityRoots collections...
Release Of The Week:
TrinityRoots - Music Is Choice (CD and DVD)
TrinityRoots, after six years, two and a half albums and many gigs across the earth, played their final concert February 13th 2005 in a sellout show at the Wellington Town Hall. It has been a long wait for fans - but finally, Music Is Choice is offered to fill the void with 8 tracks from their last concerts on CD packaged with a feature length music documentary and bonus footage on DVD (Rated PG).
TrinityRoots stopped at their zenith. These live recordings accurately reflect that. Like the TrinityRoots studio albums, they are sure to become a treasured piece of NZ music history from a band that had won so many hearts with their genuine soul-baring music that connected the listener to the land we live in.
The DVD includes the documentary directed and produced by fan and friend Sarah Hunter. With generous amounts of footage of the band rehearsing, performing, and philosophising the viewer is transported on the very special journey that was TrinityRoots. Bonus footage includes the memorable Little Things clip directed by Chris Graham (Sione's Wedding, The Ferryman) plus an awe inspiring look at the making of that iconic NZ music video.
