Singer-songwriter Aldous Harding has taken out one of New Zealand's prestigious music awards - the Taite Music Prize - for her album Party. Named after the late music journalist Dylan Taite, the award recognises outstanding creativity in albums released over the last year. Harding was up against some tough competition for this year's prize, including Nadia Reid, TEEKS, Fazerdaze, Mermaidens and The Bads.
