Increasingly, top Maori musicians like Moana & the Tribe are touring overseas to sell-out crowds in places like Russia and the United States", says Project Manager Ngahiwi Apanui. "PAO PAO PAO is an opportunity for us to see our musical ambassadors perform at home and to celebrate younger Maori musicians who are following in their footsteps."
The full line-up is Moana & the Tribe, Whirimako Black, Te Aratoi - Riki and Rewi, Toni Huata, Pacific Curls, Ngatai Huata, Zero-T, 4 Corners and the dance crew Torotoro. The three hour showcase will provide a musical and visual feast for the mind, body and soul.
