" I am Polynesian ".
Half Maori, half European,
born and raised in New Zealand.
Throughout my career I have had the opportunity to work
with some of the worlds leading Artists and most talented Musicians.
I have done two world tours performing a "No 1 Hit" with " O.M.C. "( The "HOW BIZARRE" Tour ) of Concerts, Festivals and Promotions.
In New York I recorded with O.M.C. one of the theme songs to the hit movie, " Mr Bean ", ( I Love L.A.) and recorded on various other compilation albums alongside " Boys to Men ", " Smashing Pumpkins " and many more.
I also have had the immense pleasure of singing and recording backing vocals on the worldwide released December 1999 album, by " Dame Kiri Te Kanawa " through EMI Classics U.K.
Working with world class producer John Fraser and co-producer Peter Cobbin from Abbey Road, the home of the Beatles.
One of the tracks from the album was televised worldwide before each World Cup Rugby match last year, where I was seen performing backing vocals for her.
Recently I recorded 4 of my originals songs at a Los Angeles studio, Dino MIII, with producer Dino Maddalone
and had the opportunity to work with some of the finest musicans in L.A., such as Jimbo Ross (played Viola with Aerosmith), Greg Wright (played guitar with Jacksons) and Ellis Hall (played keyboards with Tower of Power and Boz Skaggs)and John Avila (Oingo Boingo) and Frank Unzueta from One World to name just a few.
My music can be described as a blend of "organic pop/rock ".
My goal is to continue to write and perform my own original music that hopefully, somehow touches peoples lives.
Performing for the opening of the America's Cup 2000. |
