Author: JOY 94.9 - LGBTI, LGBTIQA+, LGBTQIA+, LGBT, LGBTQ, LGB, Gay, Lesbian, Trans, Intersex, Queer Podcasts for all our Rainbow Communities March 5, 2026 Duration: 50:37

During the 60’s and 70’s there was a strong migration of great musicians from our neighbour over the Tasman. Many of these New Zealanders made their mark on the Australian charts playing a focal part in the Australian Music Industry. This week under the theme of ANTIPODEANS we highlight some of that talent from “across the ditch”.
