Thanks to the Auckland Arts Festival, we were honoured to kōrero with Lehua Kalima and Pono Fernandez from Kulāiwi, a collective of award-winning Native Hawaiian musicians, songwriters, and cultural leaders (including Kawika Kahiapo & Shawn Pimental).
We talk about:
🎶 The power of mele (music) & hula
🌏 The connection between Hawaiian & Māori artistry
🫶🏾 What to anticipate at their #AAF2025 shows in Aotearoa and their hopes of cultural exchange and collaboration with Moana creatives while they're here in Aotearoa.
Stay with us till the end, because we’re also joined by the phenomenal Kaumakaiwa, a powerhouse performer whose voice carries generations of tradition and mana. 🌊🐚 🎉
