Kia ora!
Come on in to our flat.
It's pretty cool, like, the SIX60 house.
It's where probably New Zealand's most famous band ever formed
and we get to stay here rent free.
There's nothing better than running through the house singing a song
and instead of some people being like, "Shut up, you're making noise!"
they join in with you.
Na na. That's cap.
You see the hallway? - That was–
Wasn't always like that. - That was my only mess.
Kia ora, I'm TJ.
I study physiotherapy at the University of Otago alongside music production.
Beat pauses.
They do everything.
I believe that healing and music are synonymous
and I want to make sure that I somehow help people heal through my music.
Because for me, artists have helped me in the past,
so I just feel like it's my turn to give back
after receiving so much love from other people's music.
Someday I want to sell out, like, arena tours and they leave my shows feeling heard
and not alone.
That's kind of the thing.
I want people to just unite at my shows.
What are we getting a shot of, the ring? - The ring.
It's fire isn't it. - Yeah, it's good.
Thanks.
One of the coolest things about being here in this house is how diverse we are.
Like, I'm getting to learn about, like, the Māori culture,
they're learning about my African background and
I'm learning about whatever Sam is.
Hi, my name is Samuel Leaper and I'm studying music at Otago.
I've played piano ever since I was a young child.
Yeah, there's no place like being on stage for me.
I find the thrill of being up there playing
music, hearing people singing your songs back at you or,
or just getting to work with, you know, guys in my band
or whoever I'm playing with.
It's an amazing feeling.
My dream would be touring with my band.
I love it.
It's the dream to be able to,
you know,
just work with those guys full time.
Don't trust her with chicken.
Oh what! I was about to point at myself.
My name is Emily Kerr-Bell.
I study music and theatre at Otago, and my biggest music project
that I'm sort of involved with is my band, Emily Alice.
We're reasonably fresh, but we've been really fortunate
to get to record some of our material through the uni
and, like, we just have so much fun,
you know, creating together and collaborating on what we do that,
we just, like, sharing that joy in other people is such an awesome
feeling to just have that sort of sense of connection with the people that we work
with, or that listen to our music or dance to it or whatever.
Making music that we enjoy is the biggest part for us.
I think if in ten years we're still together and making music
that we love whatever that looks like, I think only good things would come from that.
You know, people connect with what you enjoy and what's genuine and authentic.
Kia ora.
My name is Teone Hotu. I am 21 years old.
