SEREBII Album Release

SEREBII is the project of Auckland-based producer and multi-instrumentalist Callum Mower.

His third album, Nothing Grows Here, sits in atmosphere and texture, leaning into transition, ambiguity and unfinished emotional states. Built from moments of movement rather than resolution, the record drifts between clarity and collapse, holding space for ideas still forming.

Be the first to hear the album reworked for stage, alongside earlier material, presented in an intimate live setting at Vogelmorn Upstairs on the 5th of June. Get your tickets from Under The Radar

One Path: The White King by Greg Broadmore Book Signing

Join us at the Wētā Cave in Wellington for an exclusive book signing with the legendary Greg Broadmore.

Book Two of the epic One Path saga has arrived — and it's brutal, breathtaking and unmissable.

In a savage prehistoric world, One Path flees her tribe with a cursed infant, hunted across endless forests and mountains by her own sister's war-band — and something far older and far worse: the White King, an ancient T-Rex rising from hibernation with one purpose.

Be in to win a signed book and print! Books also available for sale in-store.

Saturday 13 June, 11:00 am – 2:00 pm, Wētā Cave, Wellington
