In 2016 we started TV Country TV as a one hour NZ Country Music show, interviewing artists and festivals we produced 2 series of Kiwi Country TV with 12 episodes in each series.   

Kiwi Country TV series showed on  Keep it Country TV in the UK (SKY 87 FREESAT 516)  and Europe in 2017. Also on Channel 39 in Dunedin New Zealand and Mainland TV in Nelson New Zealand. The 2 series were well received on all channels that took the program.   

Funding from Creative NZ allowed us to promote the show. We travelled to the NZ Gold Guitars and NZ Country Music awards with our programs showing on the big screens at NZ Gold Guitars & running a NZ Country Music Stand at the NZ Country Music Awards   

We produced the Kiwi Country TV compilation CD with 20 tracks from NZ Artists and these were sold and sent to radio stations who are still using them today.   

We have produced the NZ Segment (Kiwi Country TV) of the International Showcase on the big stage at Tamworth Country Music Festival for 3 years, giving opportunity for NZ Artists to get exposure across the ditch   

2020 has created many challenges for artists around the globe with Covid 19 Aotearoa included  and we  are now making a step forward and a step up to turn Kiwi Country TV into a full time Country Music Channel .    

Kiwi Country TV wants to celebrate the amazing New Zealand recording artists that perform here in New Zealand or have spread their wings around the globe. Also our neighbors across the ditch in Australia who welcome our NZ Country artists with open arms.

From Bluegrass to Country Rock, Alt country and Americana and Blues n' Roots styles. New, back catalogue and archival. from New Zeaalnd and Australian Artists. Artists wishing to get airplay of their videos please contact us on kiwicountrytelevision@gmail.com  please send a link to your video .
