About the interviewer roger.bowie

Hi, I’m Roger Bowie and until February 2021 I was running the Radio 13 website as well as contributing reviews and interviews. I have a monthly radio show on Planet FM which selects tracks from my 50 years of collecting all sorts of music, but currently I’m mainly an Americana man. https://www.planetaudio.org.nz/rogers-eclectic-journey I’m a Trustee of the New Zealand Country Music Festival Trust which runs the Tussock Country Music Festival in Gore from late May until Queen’s Birthday weekend. Just a music freak, really, in contrast to a 40 year career in business.
