About Kiwi Pop / Rock
The New Zealand pop and rock mainstream from the 1970s onwards, built around Split Enz's experimental art-rock, Crowded House's trans-Tasman radio dominance, Bic Runga's singer-songwriter ballads, and the one-hit-wonder export of OMC's How Bizarre. Smaller than Australia's industry but with a long record of internationally successful exports.
