Toi Rauwhārangi College of Creative Arts to host 2019 VNZMA Artisan Awards

Recognising Aotearoa’s extraordinary behind-the-scenes music talent, the fourth annual Artisan Awards will be celebrated at Massey University’s School of Music and Creative Media Production in Wellington on 4 November.

Andre Ktori, Head of School, School of Music and Creative Media Production says: “We are really pleased to be hosting the 2019 Artisan Awards again this year at the College of Creative Arts.

“We are super excited to see an award for best music manager this year, a great addition to the awards. Having the awards together with the full day of the Tui Music Series workshops is great for Wellington and a great fit for our University.”

As well as hosting the awards evening, Massey University sponsors the Best Producer | Te Kaiwhakaputa Toa award. The Massey University Best Producer finalists for 2019 are Josh Fountain for his work with BENEE, Foley, LEISURE, and MAALA; Simon Gooding, Ji Fraser, and Eli Paewai for their production of Mitch James’ self-titled debut album; and Tom Healy for his great work on Tiny Ruins’ Olympic Girls.
