Most of us are distracted. Half the time we don't know what we're supposed to be doing. We all long for zen clarity, but we don't know how to get it. We're not promising anything, but we hope some of the music in this collection will help focus your wayward mind.
Thanks for stopping by and visiting us at Flying Nun Records. Over the past forty five-ish years, the record label has released hundreds of alternative and underground Aotearoa New Zealand albums, singles and videos. Flying Nun originally started in the South Island in 1981, championing what later became known as the 'Dunedin Sound'. These days, we continue to release new local artists and bands, as well as reissuing albums from the catalog. We have three record stores located in Te Whanganui-a-Tara Wellington, Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland and Ōtautahi Christchurch. The shops stock both our record label releases, as well as a curated selection of interesting other music. Please take a look around!
Charlotte works in the the Flying Nun Wellington store and she knows what's happening in the local music scene. Not only does she know the best in local music, she books shows, manages bands and is an all round champion of local music. She also updates our weekly gig recommendations. Usually, she knows what's happening, before anyone has already even thought of it!
