Several Play It Strange stars "played it strange" to MPs, staff, city councillors,
family and friends in the great banquet hall in the Beehive Tuesday 3m May.
Upon Chris Tremain's invitation, Wellington and Auckland artists "rocked the house"
for over an hour in celebration of the beginning of NZ Music Month.
The music continues with many of the same artists performing around libraries and venues in
Wellington throughout the month with several performances also taking place in Copperfields
cafe in Parliament to keep our politicians toe-tapping their way through the month of May.

Play It Strange was proud to help out the Turn Your Life Around prgramme with getting 25 teenagers into York St Studios on 27th January, to write and record a track in the space of one afternoon. Dave Gibson from Elemeno P worked with the kids to achieve this remarkable feat. The kids had never been in a studio before or written a song, and with two talented young rappers stepping up to the plate the results are fantastic.
