TE REO TUIA TE MUKA KŌRERO
He taonga te reo
Performers
Waiata are taonga. Precious and rich in history, waiata carry whakapapa, the many histories of our tı̄puna – ancestral and genealogical links to knowledge passed down through generations, holding moments of longing and remembrance to the biting pain of loss. Waiata are our universities, classrooms and photo albums.
Maisey Rika Rob Ruha Seth Haapu Stan Walker Maimoa Whirimako Black
Waiata Māori have survived bans, beatings and legislative batterings. They have been chanted, sung and roared from one of end our land to the other. From faraway stadiums to the beating heart of our Marae this unbroken continuum of waiata and composition has held aloft our beautiful language – te reo Māori. In today’s Aotearoa, our waiata are more potent and pertinent than ever, carrying the battle cries of struggle and inspiring the awe and delight of our contemporary times. Once likened to me by my father as the throaty chuckle of kereru, te reo Māori is a language made for singing. Tonight’s concert is a tribute to the artists and songs that continue to uplift te reo Māori and generously invite us all to participate. Tama Waipara, Creative Director

Biographies ROB RUHA is an iconic composer and solo artist of a new generation of Māori, with his award winning music and soul stirring performances, Ruha has released his second album SURVIVANCE with his new band The Witch Dr. This collaborative project with some of the New Zealand’s finest musicians (Darren Mathiassen from Shapeshifter, James Illingworth from Bliss n Eso, Tyna Keelan from The Nok and Johnny Lawrence from Electric Wire Hustle), aka The Witch Dr., promotes the Māori nation as relevant, spirited, capable, connected, prophetic, morally courageous and unrelenting in their pursuit of self-determination – a trademark of Rob’s music to date. Featuring vocal performances by Ria Hall, Bella Kalolo, Kaaterama Pou and The Rū-Cru. At the New Zealand Music Awards in 2014 and 2016, Rob took home the Tui for Best Māori Album. Rob has also taken home NZMA awards for Best Songwriter, Best Māori Song, Best Male Solo Artist (Waiata Māori Music Awards) and the prestigious APRA Maioha Award twice.
Māori singer/songwriter MAISEY RIKA has one of Aotearoa’s most impressive lead vocal styles. Maisey now has four original albums to add to her name, all of which have received accolades in the NZ Top 40 album charts and won four out of four nominated categories at the 2010 Waiata Māori Music Awards, including ‘Best Māori Female Solo Artist Award’ – which she won in 2009 as well, ‘Best Māori Pop Album’, Best Māori Song and Best Māori Songwriter of the year. Maisey has toured New Zealand, Australia and Asia, and is now currently expanding through Europe and America. Live performances have put her alongside Dave Dobbyn, Hinewehi Mohi, Anika Moa, Australian Idol Stan Walker, five-time USA Grammy award-winners The Blind Boys of Alabama, and many more well-known musicians/artists.
The multitalented HINEWEHI MOHI, MNZM, released her debut single ‘Kai U’ in 1992. The first Oceania album (1999), made with British musician Jaz Coleman (Killing Joke), fused Māori harmonies and dance beats. It went double platinum, sold overseas and yielded single ‘Kotahitanga’. Recorded with the Auckland Chamber Orchestra, her 2013 album Raukatauri – Te Puhi o te Tangi marked 20 years of making music. Mohi founded the Raukatauri Music Therapy Centre, after her own daughter was born with cerebral palsy. She is arguably best known for a single moment from her musical career – singing the national anthem in te reo at a 1999 rugby game. In 2004 she set up Raukatauri Productions, and launched long-running waiata programme Moteatea. It was nominated for two screen awards. Her TV work also includes producing Marae DIY and Matariki Awards coverage, and directing a documentary on Merata Mita. In 2016 Women in Film and Televison named her Te Reo Māori Champion.
A veteran of eight solo albums, WHIRIMAKO BLACK is a champion of te reo Māori, producing many of her albums in her native tongue as well as a number of bilingual efforts. She has been featured on numerous collaboration albums alongside some of world music’s biggest names. Her awards include Best Māori Album and Best Jazz Album at the NZ Music Awards and a coveted Silver Scroll award in songwriting for Best Māori Composition, to name just a few. Whirimako is today one of the country’s most respected singer-songwriters. She has been featured on numerous collaboration albums alongside some of world music’s biggest names. In recent years, Whirimako has moved effortlessly into the sultry stylings of the great jazz standards to which she added her uniquely Māori interpretation.
MAIMOA MUSIC – a collective of young Māori artists coming together to do what we love with the hope to entertain and inspire. The Maimoa Music group, best known for their hit song ‘Maimoatia’ is made up of 12 artists: Pere Wihongi, Tawaroa Kawana, Puawai Taiapa, Hoeata Maxwell-Blake, Mereana Teka, Awatea Wihongi, Nathaniel Howe, Raniera Blake, Metotagivake Shmidt-Peke and Kia Kaaterama Kiri-Pou. In 2018 they released their breakout hit song, ‘Wairua’, which stayed on the charts for weeks. The music video has over 6.8 million views. 1
STAN WALKER is a recording artist and actor who rose to fame as the winner of Australian Idol in 2009 and topped the charts shortly thereafter with his debut single, ‘Black Box’ – co-written by English hitmaker Wayne Hector, well known for his work with Westlife, along with Danish hitmakers Wayne Hector, Jonas Jeberg, and Cutfather. Debut album Introducing... Stan Walker went straight to number three on the Australian ARIA Albums Charts, was certified platinum by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) and was certified triple platinum by the Recording Industry Association of New Zealand (RIANZ). Stan has received five New Zealand Music Awards and was a judge on the first and second season of The X Factor NZ in 2013 and 2015. In 2010, Stan released his second studio album, From the Inside Out, which spawned the hit singles, ‘Unbroken’ and ‘Choose You’. The album debuted at number one on the New Zealand Albums Chart and number two on the ARIA Albums Chart. In November 2011, Walker released his third studio album, Let the Music Play, which debuted at number 18 on the ARIA Albums Chart and number 12 in New Zealand, and spawned the hit single ‘Loud’. During his career, Walker has won five New Zealand Music Awards and has received five ARIA Music Award nominations. Walker was a judge on the first and second season of The X Factor NZ in 2013 and 2015. He made his acting debut in the New Zealand film Mt Zion (2013), and played the role of Benjy in the 2015 New Zealand film Born to Dance.
MOANA MANIAPOTO, MNZM, is one of the most distinctive, articulate and significant Māori voices in music – first with Moana and the Moahunters and latterly as Moana & the Tribe. In 2004, Moana became the first non-American to win a major USA based songwriting contest with her song ‘Moko’, beating over 11,000 compositions to win the Grand Jury Prize of the International Songwriting Competition. She is a Lifetime Recipient of the Toi Iho Māori Made Mark (denoting authenticity and quality) and received the 2005 Te Tohu Mahi Hou a Te Waka Toi Award from Te Waka Toi (Creative New Zealand) in recognition of “outstanding leadership and contribution to the development of new directions in Maori art.” In 2006 US magazine The Beat praised her as a “truly inspiring performing and recording artist” and in 2007 received an Arts Foundation Laureate Award and in 2008 was honoured by the Waiata Māori Music Awards for her special contribution to the Māori music industry. Moana toured across Europe in 2013, before heading into Korea for the first time. In 2014 she presented New Zealand in the tri-nation Boomerang Project, which was launched at Womad NZ, and played at the Sydney Opera House, then as part of the Glasgow 2014 Festival.
TAMI NEILSON is a Canadian-born, New Zealand-based country & soul singer/songwriter. With a soulful voice straight from the golden age of soul, country and rockabilly music, Tamara (Tami) Neilson has been described as “a red-hot honky-tonker, somewhere between Patsy Cline and Wanda Jackson with perhaps just a little bit of Peggy Lee sophistication.” (Nick Bollinger, Radio NZ National) In 2014, Tami was also awarded the APRA Silver Scroll, New Zealand’s most prestigious music award for excellence in songwriting, for her song ‘Walk (Back to Your Arms)’, as well as “Best Female Artist” at the National Country Music Awards and APRA’s “Best Country Song” at the NZ Country Music Awards. The release of her explosive album Dynamite! received rave reviews in MOJO, The Guardian (named “Top 10 Best Country Music Album”), climbed to #1 on the NZ Music Charts, and won the title of 2015’s “Best Country Music Album”. A 5-star review in the NZ Herald claimed “this world-class album is a major statement from an artist at the top of her lyrical and vocal game.” Just 18 months after Dynamite!, Tami released her follow-up album, Don’t Be Afraid, to critical acclaim, debuting on the NZ Album Charts and the Independent Music Charts at #1. In 2018, Tami released the critically acclaimed, co-produced SASSAFRASS!, nominated for “Album of the Year” at the NZ Music Awards with glowing reviews in Rolling Stone Country, American Songwriter, Pop Matters and No Depression. 2
SETH HAAPU is a modern-classic image of South Pacific identity who writes, produces and sings with a velvet voice, reminiscent of R&B intimacy. Seth has worked quietly behind the scenes, writing and producing music for the likes of Stan Walker, Sons of Zion and Maisey Rika. In 2016 Seth released Volume I; his second EP followed in 2017. By virtue of his nature, both works were an exercise in catharsis, revealing discoveries around his Polynesian heritage. Haapu, meaning refuge, is a village originally built over water on the island of Huahine, Tahiti; the home of his bloodlines before their passage to New Zealand. Despite minimal exposure, both volumes went to #1 on iTunes NZ Singer-songwriter chart, with nominations for APRA’s Silver Scroll Award. Beyond the Pacific, he discovered international contemporaries like Solange, Sampha and Daniel Caesar – all of whom found inspiration in their own unique cultural origins. Recently, Seth was awarded “Kaitito Waiata Māori Autaia” (Best Māori Songwriter) for his song ‘New Wave’ at the 2018 Waiata Māori Music Awards.
ANNIE CRUMMER, MNZM, has one of New Zealand’s best-loved and most travelled voices. She first made an impact with her show-stopping guest slot with Netherworld Dancing Toys on ‘For Today’ in 1985. From the late ’80s she has been part of the very successful all-female act When the Cat’s Away. She released her first solo album Language in 1992 and followed it with Seventh Wave in 1996, before turning her hand to musicals with roles in Rent and Ben Elton’s Queen-inspired show We Will Rock You. In 2011 she won the Senior Pacific Artist award at Creative NZ’s Arts Pasifika Awards. Her voice has taken her from Avondale to Paisley Park, from local talent quests to duets with Sting, and back to her Rarotongan heritage.
