About Gavland Radio

We play predominantly New Zealand Rock and Pop, from 1960s to current. We also feature a small quantity of New Zealand Blues, Jazz, Roots, and Electronica. If you would like to hear more of these genres we suggest you check out our links page for leads to more New Zealand artists in these styles.

Material is transmitted at our discretion (after all it's our radio station so we'll damn well play what we like). We do not imply, or necessarily have, any connection, be it personal, financial or legal, with the artists who's material we transmit. On the other hand material which is featured at our sales site will from time to time be included and promoted during our broadcasts.

We reserve the right to play scratchy old vinyl.

During live to air broadcasts we take no responsibility for the quality, performance, or content of our program material. People might play bum notes or curse (or both). That is not our fault. Parents supervise your children. Children please be good!

We are firmly against the theft of copyright material (i.e. the music we are transmitting). This is the artist's livelihood. In many cases it feeds their wives and kids. (And please remember a hungry wife is a grumpy wife! As for a wife with hungry kids - lets not even go there!) Contrary to popular opinion not all musicians are rich - and financial wealth is, in most cases, due more to corporate promotion than talent or skill. In short, if you'd like to possess a copy of material you hear on our site then please purchase it legitimately. If you are unable to find it in a record store near you then please contact us and we'll do our best to assist.

New Zealand Artists may submit music for airplay. Visit our Get Played page to find out more

Enjoy!
