This week in The Sampler Nick Bollinger discusses the solo debut of veteran Kiwi rocker Harry Lyon, the verbal virtuosity of Chicago rapper Noname, and a Paul Simon album that offers new ways to listen to his storied catalogue.
The Sampler's Nick Bollinger is on hiatus for six months while he writes a book, so RNZ Music has a brand new music podcast. Song Crush, hosted by audio obsessive Kirsten Johnstone, brings you the best new music every week.
