Tonight - a Heyday not to miss.
At 6:30pm, Glenn Bennie from Underground Lovers joins us to talk about the 30th anniversary and tour of their celebrated album, Dream It Down. Then at 7pm, a special tribute to the late Martin Phillipps of The Chills by Greg Brady. Tune in to 4ZZZ 102.1fm from 6-8pm, every Saturday night 💗
Vale Martin Phillipps
Our friend Martin Phillipps died at his Dunedin home on the weekend. He was 61 years old. Martin and his band, the Chills, were an integral part of the 1980s Dunedin scene and of the bigger Flying Nun Records family. Martin was a single-minded talent who took all components of a musical career seriously: song writing, performance and in the studio. Demanding of perfection in others and himself, songs such as ‘Rolling Moon’, ‘Pink Frost’, ‘I Love My Leather Jacket’ and ‘Heavenly Pop Hit’ were increasingly commercially successful and helped define the best of New Zealand music in the 1980s. This last song and its album, Submarine Bells, almost broke the band internationally. After a pause, he then pulled himself up to reinvigorate the Chills and his career in the mid 2010s. With a stable unchanging band line up Martin once again was producing fine new albums and undertaking extensive New Zealand and international tours. Gone too soon, he will be greatly missed.

If you missed our catch up with Joc Curran and her reflections on the zoo you can listen back here http://ondemand.4zzzfm.org.au/hey-day.
Thanks so much for joining us on Heyday last night Joc, and for creating such a memorable space for Brisbane musicians and music lovers alike. Thanks to all of you who tuned in and shared your memories. The Zoo is hosting live shows until it closes its doors in July. Let’s get out there and support live music in our amazing local venues. See you at a gig soon.
Kristin & Kellie ❤️
Tonight we remember the zoo. Brisbane's iconic live music venue of 32 years announced this week that it was ceasing operations, leaving the local music community in a state of disbelief.
Heyday has the immense pleasure of having venue founder Joc Curran, in studio with us this evening. Joc has carefully curated a playlist to soundtrack her most vivid memories of her time running one of Brisbane's most beloved and long running venues.
Tune in from 6pm to 4ZZZ 102.1fm.

Catch you at 6pm rabbits! 🐇 😎
Tonight! A theme of B-Sides, Rarities and Demos - very fitting for Record Store Day. Somewhat of a lost art in the age of streaming, the humble B-Side was a necessity on the flip side of a 7" single. Every once in a while, the B-Side (often an album track), became more popular than the A-Side. We'll bring these songs to the front tonight on Heyday from 6pm on 102.1fm. 😎☎️📻🎧
Tonight we take a walk on the dark side. With bands including Lebanon Hanover and Locust Revival playing shows in the very near future, we thought it a good idea to prepare the way. Get out your eyeliner and your black coats and tune in to 4ZZZ tonight from 6-8pm on 102.1fm. Requests always welcome 🦇
Tonight! We are joined in studio by John Willsteed (Xero/The Go Betweens) to learn about Brisbane's Punk past during the dark days of the Bjelke-Petersen era.

The book also contains essays by Robert Forster and John himself, who were musicians in the scene at the time. A show not to miss for lovers of Brisbane's music history. Tune in from 6pm on 102.1fm on 4zzz
