Hailing from the serene shores of the East Coast of the North Island it’s no surprise Maisey Rika’s music has moulded to bring such elegance that resonates beauty. A mix of Māori, folk, acoustic, soul and easy listening, her musical palette is vibrant with elements of roots and deep culture.
Composer, practitioner and cross genre collaborator, Horomona Horo has fused the traditional instruments of the Maori, taonga puoro within a diverse range of cultural and musical forms
'Taku Mana'
My mana is special
My mana is Māori
Fostered from God
Nurtured by my ancestors
Fashioned by the land and the sea
My mana is my awakening, my fear and my inspiration
