New Zealand musician Martin Phillips passed away last summer, but his memory lives on this week on Teenage Kicks. He's primarily known for his work with The Chills, who were a cornerstone of the Dunedin sound and influenced jangle pop bands for more than four decade. Listen Saturday for a selection of songs from their final album Springboard, a collection of new recordings of early Martin Phillips compositions. In addition to celebrating the music of Martin Phillips, you'll also hear from other New Zealand artists like The Clean, The Bats and many more.
