Hei whakanui i Te Rā Huriao o Ngā Wāhine, ka takoto i a Moana & the Tribe ko ONO, koia ko tā rātou kōputu waiata hōu ka tīmata i Aotearoa, ka huri ai i te ao.
Tokoono ngā wāhine iwi taketake ka whai wāhi ki tētahi hanumitanga tū mataora me te whakaaturanga ataata. He mea tuitui atu hoki ko ngā reo rōreka, ko te kapa haka, ko ngā pūkenga kanikani, ko ngā ia papā-tāhiko anō e kori ai te tangata.
Ko ngā kupu reo Māori e whakanui ana i te mana nui o te tangata, o te whanaungatanga, o te reo anō hoki. Whai wāhi mai ana ko ētahi ringapuoro kua toro mai i tāwāhi, arā, ko Shellie Morris nō Te Whenua Moemoeā rāua ko Kaumakaiwa Kanaka’ole nō Hawai’i. Kitea ana hoki he whakaahua ataata waiwaiā nō te rohe pae maunga o Kōtirana, nō ngā whenua o te Kōpaka Raro, nō tua atu anō, he wheako puoro tēnei e whakaū ana i ngā mātāpono o te tūmanako me te kotahitanga.
In celebration of International Women’s Day, Moana & the Tribe present ONO, their latest album that begins in Aotearoa and travels the world.
Six Indigenous women are featured in a hybrid of live performance and video showcase infused with sublime vocals, kapa haka and dance prowess, and funky electronic-dub beats.
Lyrics in te reo Māori pay homage to the power of people, relationships and language. With visiting musicians Shellie Morris from Australia and Kaumakaiwa Kanaka’ole from Hawai’i, alongside breathtaking visuals from the highlands of Scotland, Arctic Circle and beyond, this is a music experience that reinforces the values of hope and unity.
