WOMAD 2020 INTRODUCES MONTELL2099, STACEY MORRISON & THE STEAMLAB SPEAKERS

2 mins read

Just announced! Closing the Gables Stage on Saturday night is Auckland-based beatmaker MONTELL 2099, one of the most exciting new electronic music talents to emerge from New Zealand in recent years. In an era where musicians often lean on gimmicks to market their work, MONTELL2099 is connecting with his audiences on the strength of his music alone, and he’s only just getting started. Mixing bubbling melodies, manipulated vocal snippets and booming bass hits, his idiosyncratic productions ripple and thud with club-ready swing and funk. With a taste for genre-bending releases, MONTELL2099’s mantra is simple–surprise his listener on every corner!

Stacey Morrison is looking forward to taking the stage as the host of OMV Taste The World at WOMAD NZ, 2020.  Excited to be part of this delectable festival highlight Stacey can’t wait to share her love of kai with international artists, and festival audiences, after hosting five seasons of her lifestyle and cooking show Wh?nau Living.

“I can’t wait to see artists from around the world step off the stage and into the kitchen. No doubt their joy at sharing delicious, fresh and unique recipes from their homelands will be contagious and leave WOMAD audiences hugely inspired.  OMV Taste the world is such a colourful setting, and I’m excited to help the artists feel welcome in Aotearoa”
