One local promoter, Banished Music, which works with the likes of Nadia Reid, Lawrence Arabia, Finn Andrews (The Veils), Reb Fountain, Tiny Ruins and more, is using a Kiwi classic to raise some much-needed funds… a raffle!
Anyone can enter for the chance to win a lifetime’s worth of double passes to every Banished Music-promoted show from now until the end of time!
All proceeds go to small live venues and local independent promoters.
