Mammoth Issue 1 cover

Mammoth is an independently produced live music and events guide, featuring short articles, that was launched in late February 2008. The zine was created by Matt Scheurich, Shane Dudfield and Pete Dawson. Issue 1 was funded by a Hamilton Community Arts Council Grant and the following issues have been supported through advertising revenue. Printed on A4 sized paper and folded down to A7 size, the zine is released every two weeks. Since mid-May 2008 (Issue 7), Mammoth has been the sponsor of the Mammoth Top 8 on Contact 88.1 FM, with voting being undertaken via the Mammoth webpage.
