Smooth, spacious, soulful, sexy, sublime, liquid sounds. That’s the music of Electric Wire Hustle.
Aotearoa Goodness Again
Like their contemporaries in Aotearoa/New Zealand (including Trinity Roots and Fat Freddys Drop amongst many others), Electric Wire Hustle’s music has a distinctly and uniquely Aotearoa sound reflective of its lands and it’s peoples…spacious, gentle, innovative, original sounding, beautifully mixed blends of soul, jazz, r&b, hip hop, electronica and more.
Electric Wire Hustle Are
Electric Wire Hustle is the combined and awesome musicianship of multi-instrumentalists and vocalists Mara TK, Myele Manzanza and David ‘Taay Ninh’ Wright.

You hear and love the distinctly sweet flavours of Aotearoa yes?
If not, get yourself on a plane to some Aotearoa music festivals and music stores, and you’ll understand.
Time, Time, Time, Keeps On Ticking
Electric Wire Hustle’s debut album was released in 2009 and again in 2010. Time has ticked away while they’ve toured their music at home and internationally, including in Australia at AWME (Australasian Worldwide Music Expo) 2010. All along the way the group has had positive, revering worldwide reviews.
The awesome news for the world is that Electric Wire Hustle has been in the studio recording new tracks. The highly anticipated wait to see what new sounds they’re bringing us, is nearly over.
The band played recently at what looked and sounded like yet another incredible open-air music festival in the magical lands of Aotearoa – Rippon Festival 2014. No doubt festival audiences were treated to some new music.
