This October, The Harcourts Hawke’s Bay Arts Festival takes place in Napier, Hastings and Havelock North at a variety of locations – check out the program. Also, as part of the festival there is a series of Writers & Readers talks and events.
Join me on Saturday October 20, at the Cabana in Napier – I’ll be in conversation with Jamie Macphail chairing – he’ll be talking to me and the great Nick Bollinger. The event is called Backstage with Nick and Simon and it will be a wide-ranging chat about music journalism, what’s left of it, the state of it – the aims and ambitions and such…
If you haven’t already, you can hear me and Nick talking together on my podcast.
You should also check out Nick’s excellent memoir, Goneville.
I’m excited about this event, honoured to be included on the bill. There are some great music and cultural events as part of the Hawke’s Bay Arts Festival.
