Here, In Time has been housed from the Travesties, revoiced, stripped of the ax-slide-bass and hick-shuff, and lounged up for lockdown.

Gravy (Vintage Nerd)- The New Things

Having shared a name with this song my whole life, I’ve had people sing this at me near on a thousand times. While I don’t identify with the Victoria in the song I feel I’m already forever linked to the song, so it’s been a blast to put my own spin on it.

I’m also very proud to call Ōtautahi Christchurch my home (fun fact, I was born in Timaru where The Dance Exponents moved from, and spent a few years living in British Colombia where Jordan Luck was born - spooky!)

Hope you enjoy listening to all the new versions of this classic!

Imperial April - Victoria (Exponents Cover)

I’m proud to offer my tribute to a song that redefined kiwi rock; an unashamedly homegrown hit, it’s heady crate-day anthems welded into the psyche like titanium in popcorn. Like Christchurch, Victoria ultimately transcended the challenges and stigma she faced, and arose not broken but victorious.  I’ll be the first to blame the tune. Perhaps now it could save Otautahi as well!
