Weekly Roundup: Friday 26th June

There's an increasing number of great gigs to look forward to as we charge into the weekend, but we'd be straight up negligent not to mention how lucky we are that there's live shows happening at all! Aotearoa can claim to have literally one of the best live music scenes in the world now more than ever, as large portions of the rest of the globe's stages are still closed to the public due to Covid-19. Let's collectively make the most of what we've got and celebrate our live music community (who are still recovering from being closed during lockdown) by getting out there and amongst it this weekend...
