Tim Guy (dreamy folk pop)
After being born in Australia, and then spending his formative years growing up in Papua New Guinea and New Zealand, Tim Guy is a wanderer at heart. Now residing permanently in Auckland New Zealand, his ever-changing and evolving songwriting style constantly pushes the boundaries of folk music while he keeps the spirit and tradition of the genre close to his heart.
With 3 albums to his name; 2004’s Blazey (produced by Bic Runga), 2007’s self-produced and fast becoming lo-fi classic ‘Hummabyes’ and 2010’s ‘Big World’, a lush production as the antithesis of the previous release, Tim Guy continues to forge ahead as one of the country’s freshest and most talented songwriters. Having toured New Zealand several times his loyal fanbase continues to build as his reputation grows as a charming and consummate performer and entertainer. Following the release of his latest album ‘Big World’ in May 2010, Tim is off to wander again on a tour throughout NZ, Australia and Europe.

Bond Street Bridge (cinematic folk noir)
Bond Street Bridge is the solo project of New Zealander Sam Prebble, who has become a fixture of the Auckland indie-folk scene over the past few years, playing mandolin, fiddle and guitar in a wide range of up-and-coming bands.
The live set is a solo show in which Sam uses loop pedals and tape echoes to build up layers of guitar, violin, minimalistic beats and vocals to produce a hypnotic, compelling and original sound. Audiences are drawn in to the strange world Bond Street Bridge conjours up with a combination of evocative, poetic lyrics and sonically lush instrumental arrangements.
In 2008, Bond Street Bridge released his debut album ‘The Mapmakers’ Art’ on Monkey Records, and since then has toured extensively around New Zealand and Australia.
