The room the
music came from
The Sitting Room sits on the hillside above Lyttelton Harbour. For over twenty years it has been a second home for some of Aotearoa's best songwriters, with producer Ben Edwards behind the desk.
Ben has never chased the spotlight. He has put his time into other people's records instead: hundreds of them, late nights and early mornings, helping an artist sound like themselves on tape.
Now the hillside itself is moving. A landslip above the studio threatens the ground the building stands on. The repairs are serious, and the cost is more than one small studio can carry on its own.
So the community around Ben is building something back. We have started a Givealittle campaign, and we are asking everyone who cares about this room to chip in what they can.
