Hello. Who are we speaking with and what are you doing at AWME 2015?
My name is Bobby Brazuka and I am a member of Latinaotearoa, a band from New Zealand. We’re doing a showcase at AWME 2015.
What do you think is unique about AWME and its role in cultivating Australasian music?
AWME gathers the best talents that we can find in Australia and New Zealand for three days of beautiful music and atmosphere. It’s where festival programmers, agents and promoters from around the globe can see how amazing the Antipodean musicians are.
What can punters expect from the atmosphere of AWME and from your show?
We will deliver a melting pot of musical flavours from our motherlands and homelands, bringing a Latin beats extravaganza with spices from the South Pacific.
What’s been the best ever set that you’ve experienced, or played in, at the festival in past years?
Hiatus Kaiyote last year at AWME. They are truly amazing.
Who are some artists that we should definitely be catching this year?
Kingfisha, Emma Donovan & the Putbacks and Mojo Juju
If a movie was being set in AWME 2015, what would be the plot?
Maybe a musical Tower of Babel, where people from all around the world meet and communicate through beautiful music.
LATINAOTEAROA will appear alongside Jess Ribeiro, Mojo Juju, Emma Donovan & The Putbacks and many more at AWME 2015, which runs Thursday November 12 – Saturday November 14.
