International Newsletters

Ngā mihi o te tau hou, Happy New Year!

To kick off the year, we’re starting with a quick look back at a few of the many international feats from Aotearoa artists in 2024 around the globe. Read on for Benee‘s recent successes, Kaylee Bell‘s pending Wiggles debut and Rollingstone‘s Musicians on Musicians with our artists from home.

We’ve also got a few exciting festival announcements for Folk Alliance International 2025 in Montreal and SXSW 2025 – set to take over Austin, Texas for six days from 10th March this year.

It’s great to be back with our first big batch of Soundbites for the year, and attached you’ll find our monthly International Gig Guide. With 350+ gigs locked in for the 2025 already, it’s looking like it will be another busy twelve months for New Zealand artists taking their music to the world!

If you know of any great news we can include in future editions, please let us know. We are always keen to know more about what Aotearoa artists are up to overseas. Just email info@nzmusic.org.nz with the details.
