ANIKA MOA & OPSHOP JOIN FORCES FOR MUSIC CHARITY// FULL STORY

Two of the biggest names in Kiwi music have recorded the Dave Dobbyn classic 'Beside You' to raise funds for the Raukatauri Music Therapy Centre.

The winners of the prestigious Golden Jandals at the 2008 Radio Active 89FM Handle the Jandal DIY music video competition were announced at a lavish awards party in Wellington last night.

The New Zealand music industry has raised more than $150,000 for the Raukatauri Music Therapy Trust at a charity gala auction in Auckland on Saturday night (Nov. 15).

Father Fringe-mas dipped into his Santa Sack this week and doled out a smidge under $50,000 to New Zealand artists and entertainers for a very merry creative Christmas.

Kiwi chart toppers Shihad and Opshop will join leading rally drivers Chris West and Haydon Paddon for a unique event next March.

Fifteen of New Zealand's hottest up'n'coming filmmakers will square off for the coveted Golden Jandal at the Handle the Jandal 2008 Do It Yourself Music Video Awards.

What’s your ‘favourite’ Kiwi song? Have your say and your song could be recorded by Anika Moa and Opshop to raise funds for a deserving New Zealand music charity.

In December Cheese On Toast will celebrate five years of having a sticky finger on the pulse of the up and coming, both locally and internationally.
