For NZ Music Month the last couple of years, we asked bands/artists for a favourite memory of making music in Wellington.

It could involve a favourite gig, a funny story from the recording studio, a moment that led to the inspiration for a song, the fond recollection of a defunct venue, or the piece of music or lyric that they were most proud of creating.

We really enjoyed the stories people told us, so we are doing it again this year.

Next up is Ghost Who Walks.

I remember headlining a gig at Bad Grannies with Free the Cats and the Dead Zephyrs in January of last year with Josh Brown on drums, Kirill Podzorov on keys, and Joeseph Bulbilia on bass. The place was pumping, had a great atmosphere you know, when I happened to notice none other than Neil Billington had popped in to join us for a tune or two. So we invited him up on stage and preceeded to have to this day one of the best jam sessions I’ve been involved in. The place went nuts. It was a great honour to share the stage with a top player like Neil. A great memory.
