Each 60-minute performance will celebrate shared stories and the unique essence of Taranaki through the voices and words of local singer-songwriters.

May 2025 Featuring:
Moemoeā (Sherrie Flanagan and Chloe Danz) are a folk pop duo from Opunake. They perform original and cover music with a penchant for thought provoking lyrics and emotional harmonies, with a nod to the 90's music they were raised on.
Moemoeā have released a number of singles to Spotify this year with their first EP set for release in 2025.

Betsy, from Betsy and The Reckless brings smoky vocals, schmoozey blues and a good time to her performance.
Combining NZ reggae and dub with her deep adoration for classic blues and soul, Betsy creates a unique groove with her iconic keyboard sound while singing about warped love and rejection, with a finishing touch of sass.

Soundbite Sessions take place on the first Friday of every month, Level 2, Entertainment Space, Centre City.
