Flying Nun book launches at Lyttelton Coffee Company
27 October 2022
WORD is pleased to support the launch on Wednesday 16 November from 5.30pm at Lyttelton Coffee Company of Needles & Plastic: Flying Nun Records, 1981 - 1988. This fully illustrated account of the label, the bands and the songs from 1981–1988 – the critical early years, when the label was based in Christchurch and getting records pressed in New Zealand.
Vancouver-based writer Matthew Goody is here for the launch and will join WORD's own Kiran Dass for a Q&A alongside Flying Nun luminaries Roy Montgomery, Bruce Russell and Rachael King (also a WORD legend!). Expect decks to be spinning afterwards. Free to attend!
