Kiwi artists were honoured in Auckland tonight with the return of the Aotearoa Music Awards.
New Zealand’s music industry gathered to celebrate this year’s cohort of talent, from emerging artists to industry icons, convening at Viaduct Events Centre in Auckland.
It was a big night for The Beths, and for Tom Scott, who took home awards for his projects Home Brew Avantdale and Bowling Club. Emerging artists COTERIE and Corrella also took home significant Tūī awards, as did Marlon Williams and TAWAZ, while Dame Hinewehi Mohi was inducted into the New Zealand Music Hall of Fame.
