Biography

The award-winning TE KAAHU honours the craft of Māori songwriting and storytelling and is the brainchild of singer and songwriter, Theia (Waikato-Tainui, Ngāti Tīpā). "Te Kaahu O Rangi is a meticulous package of gorgeous song-craft that has the feeling of something made with the greatest care - every word, image and sound the product of deep thought from its writer" - Tony Stamp, RNZ ‘Theia’s rare gift is to be able to meld the past and the present in songs, which hit the heart but also chime with pop culture. The messages here are of peace, hurt and reconciliation, and optimism” - Graham Reid, The Listener “These harmony-drenched songs sway effortlessly from sparse and spine-tingling balladry to vintage-sounding numbers that evoke torch songs of the 1950s and 60s, all coming together to form one very special album indeed” – Matthew Crawley, NZ Herald
