The Magick Heads has been played on NTS shows including Idle Hands w/ Zane Landreth, with This City first played on 21 January 2020.

Dunedin, New Zealand folk-pop group the Magick Heads was led by singer Jane Sinnott and guitarist Robert Scott, the latter the onetime bassist for the seminal Clean as well as the frontman for his own longstanding unit the Bats. 3D's guitarist David Mitchell played drums in the original Magick Heads lineup, which formed in 1991; other players floated in and out of the group's ranks, with Sinnott and Scott joined by drummer Jim Strang for their 1994 Flying Nun debut Before We Go Under. Strang's bassist brother Richard signed on for the follow-up, 1997's Woody; although the band dissolved soon after the record's completion, 1999's Transvection compiled previously unreleased material. ~ Jason Ankeny, Rovi
