Attention artists wishing to record albums...Please Note...
Recently a few albums received for airplay on TLC radio have no AMCOS Clearance showing on them.There seems to be some misconception about the need to register recordings with APRA/AMCOS.Everyone making a CD of cover songs has to go through APRA / AMCOS and get a licence. Even if it is non profit it still has to be done as the songwriters should get royalties from their songs being used. Any song that is used without the songwriters' permission or not through AMCOS could be facing a very large fine and possibly a legal fight. It is in your best interest to licence all of your recordings the proper way as to not result in this. ................................................................................

Taranaki is set to have several international A-list artists perform at the TSB Bowl of Brooklands over the next three years.
The New Plymouth District Council has an agreement with promoter Andrew McManus, who brought Fleetwood Mac in December 2009, to have six events featuring A-list artists between now and the end of 2013.
One potential artist is American country singer Taylor Swift who announced she would perform in New Zealand at the end of the year as part of her world wide tour.
Other possible performers are R.E.M, Coldplay and Radiohead, who are all set to release albums this year.
Mr McManus has signed on with the council following the success of the two Fleetwood Mac shows.
Each concert will be exclusive to Taranaki, with the solo artist or band playing no other North Island shows while in New Zealand.
Andrew McManus Presents promotes artists such as ZZ Top, Chris Isaak, Motley Crue, Alice Cooper, Jethro Tull, Kelly Clarkson, Snoop Dog, Korn and Guns N Roses.

NEW ALBUM FOR
SUZANNE PRENTICE
After researching and accumulating a long list of songs that she personally loved Suzanne entered producer Mike McCarthy's Orewa studios in February to record her final selection. The end result is in Suzanne's words "The best album I have ever recorded, I couldn't be happier with it. There are some timeless classics that I have put my own unique spin on as well as a few surprises!" One thing's sure, for her many fans who have been patiently waiting, it will have certainly been worth the wait!
It is music that has been the major driving force behind all facets of Suzanne's incredible career to date and the passion it creates within shines through in abundance on this new album.

From a Filipino and Irish background, Noriana Kennedy was born in Dublin but moved to Galway to become part of its thriving Irish music scene. After six years of gigging and honing her craft, she has released Ebb n Flow, an album that revels in both the Irish and American folk tradition.
Noriana now finds herself at the fore of the Irish roots music scene, singing with esteemed players like Sharon Shannon (this year’s WOMAD), Gerry Paul and The Waterboys’ Trevor Hutchinson. The Irish Times lauded Ebb N Flow for the “…exquisite phrasing and a songbook as wide as a southern porch…” Noriana has also played live on Irish national radio (RTE 1) and been invited to perform at Ireland’s most prestigious festivals. The singer was awarded the Irish Music Network Performance and Touring Award in February 2011, and consistently wins audiences over with her nuanced, joyful performances and her fluid playing of the quirky hybrid banjo-ukelele. Noriana’s most recent accomplishment was the inclusion of two of her tracks on the ABC Australia’s compilation “Celtic Divas”.
For Ebb ‘n Flow’s maiden Australasian tour, Noriana will be joined by Galway native Nicola Joyce, who Earl Hitchener of the Wall Street Journal praised as a “magnificent vocalist who sings with sheer beauty and poignancy.” Nicola is a seasoned and gifted performed who has played in over 500 cities across the globe with Americana/Irish group Grada. Nicola plays percussion and mandolin and is a harmony singer of both precision and grace.
Also hailing from Galway, Noelie McDonnell plays with an ease and magnetism that is all too rare in modern performers. A singer songwriter of genuine class, Noelie received extensive airplay in Ireland with “Nearly Four” a song inspired by his nephew. He has been hailed by the New York Post as a “startlingly good, new Irish talent” and his album “Beyond Hard Places” spent two months in the ITunes Top 10 folk album charts. The live arena is where Noelie thrives and he has been invited to share the stage with such luminaries as John Martyn, Greg Brown, Luka Bloom and Eddie Reader.
Together, Noriana Kennedy, Noelie McDonnell and Nicola Joyce spark splendidly off each other, bringing added magic to the already impressive ebb and flow. Having performed on stages through Europe, Australia and America, their splendid vocals combined with guitar, percussion and the banjo-ukelele to weave a beguiling tapestry of Irish and American folk.
For the New Zealand leg of their tour, they are joined by Grada guitarist Gerry Paul who was a key performer in Sharon Shannon’s band as they performed at this year’s WOMAD.
They are performing in the New Plymouth Club on Saturday 19th May. Tickets ($25) may be purchased from the NP Club.
