Legal Tender is Ian and Moira Campbell who have been performing an eclectic mix of rural/folk covers and originals, around New Zealand for more years than they care to remember.

They frequently collaborated with other Kiwi musicians including various members of the Hamilton County Bluegrass Band, Bullfrog Rata, The Andrew London trio, Wayne Mason, and others.

They feature regularly at various country/folk festivals and concerts around New Zealand.
