This week on the Locals Only podcast co-host Tom Harper dove headfirst into the world of New Zealand pop and had a chat to Thomston, who's currently recording his sophomore album in a sea side Mexican town.
A short time before the interview Thomston was recording in L.A. when a culmination of the racial tensions in America and the COVID 19 pandemic forced him to make the difficult decision to move to Mexico to finish the album.
Despite turbulent times Thomston spoke articulately on both topics, shattering the myth that all pop singers do is "sing and dance around on stage."
Thomston's latest single APRIL is out now and better yet, we've popped into the episode for your listening pleasure.
