Kōrero: Folk, country and blues music

Delaney Davidson and Marlon Williams, 'Bloodletter', 2012

This video for 'Bloodletter' by Delaney Davidson and Marlon Williams was released in 2012. This alt-country piece provides a fine example of a recurring theme in New Zealand country music – a scene set in New Zealand, in this case Central Otago, but heavily influenced by ideas of the American West.
