Originally from a small town in Lancashire, England,  Amelie moved to NZ four years ago. Among the many things she fell in love with in this beautiful country, the music is top of the list. The unique sound and untainted talent of the artists here has given the best soundtrack to her new life so far.

The Big Back Yard is dedicated to the many different sounds and flavors that Aotearoa has to offer. Join Amelie on Thursdays at 10pm as she discovers the old and new talent that this awesome country has hidden away. There will be a wide range of music, features, interviews, giveaways and opinions?
