Podcast: Northland Artists Conversation with Maggie Cocco
Mark Kelly and I were both deliriously tired when we recorded so I think we were both surprised at how organically entertaining and deep this got!

Wales v New Zealand Women’s Rugby World Cup Half Time Show feat Maggie Cocco Music
A bao bun, some chippies, a waltz around the arena, and it’s dusk. New Zealand has an insurmountable lead over Wales at half time. The crowd has doubled to an impressive 16,500+ and the happy carnival-like atmosphere has intensified. I am calm. It’s just a gig. This is what I was born for. I’ve never…

France v Italy Women’s Rugby World Cup Half Time Show feat WADPA & Maggie Cocco Music
One week ago today… The green room is right next to the warmup field. It’s surreal for me and the dancers to be warming up alongside world class athletes from across the globe.
