2.15  Neive Strang live on Music 101

Ōtepoti Dunedin’s rising star Neive Strang performed songs from her brand new album Find Me in the Rabbit Hole.

In recent years she’s honed her skills playing with Dunedin’s one and only Shayne Carter in Dimmer’s touring/recording band.

But it's her solo work that has consumed Neive Strang’s attention over the last few years, and she has created a dreamy album with Taite Music Prize-winning producer Sean James Donnelly (SJD). 

Neive Strang, SJD and drummer Chris O’Connor gathered in the RNZ studio to perform live on Music 101.
