ROB SEZ: I didn't know anything about New Zealand's The Beths until I started this series and Chuck got in touch. Quite the enthusiast, Chuck persuaded me The Beths are the real deal, and he's totally on the money: winsome pop played with rock energy, fronted by Elizabeth Stokes, a charming singer with a sly sense of humor. (If I'd been paying closer attention, I would've already known Neil & Tim Finn are fans.) The Beths deserve an honored spot on anyone's list of "Worthy NZ Bands Old & New." Indykid captured this webcast beautifully, and I ripped the audio. The source is lossy, but it's high quality — so I'm sharing my lossless capture here also. Sample and purchase The Beths' music at Bandcamp, including the just-released live recording Auckland, New Zealand 2020.
