Out of the ashes of the Big Day Out rises a new festival, with the finishing touches going on this afternoon.
Auckland City Limits is a sister festival to Austin City Limits in Texas, and headlining are two very different acts -- Compton rapper Kendrick Lamar and indie rockers The National.
The National are known for their sad love songs, but they're also a bit fun.
Their last Grammy-nominated album was released in 2013 and there's been talk of another album soon.
Two of the band spoke to Newshub ahead of the festival.
Watch the video for the extended interview.
