Te Vaka

Dear Friends,

As you probably know we have all been locked down here in Australia and New Zealand so the band has not been able to get together for quite a while.

Last week was Tokelau language week in New Zealand so we decided it was a good time to share something new with you all. 

The first song has never been released and this is the very first time it has been performed. "Ko te Moana" was written for "Moana" but didnt make it into the movie. Ko te Moana https://youtu.be/8MJa4uY3Vmg

"Toku Uo pele" a song on the Havili album.

"Tautai e" is on the first Te Vaka album and holds a special place in all our hearts as it is about the masterfisherman, a very important person in the Islands Tautai e https://youtu.be/N31trAdOpzc

 

As the holiday season is just around the corner I have to put in a little plug for the Te Vaka shop.

We still have all T-shirt sizes except for XXXXL and all the Te Vaka albums. We are running low on some titles so if you want the whole set don't leave it too long.

The shipping - Packages are arriving in a reasonable amount of time despite the COVID situation.

The cost of shipping - Because Australia Post no longer offers the letter rate option that we used to use to send a single CD, it is more economical per CD to order more than one as the postage cost for one is the same as for four. Crazy I know, but that is how it is.

NEW RELEASES....... Yes, we have new music coming soon!!!

If you have arrived at the bottom of this Newsletter, Thank you very much for reading it. With so much spam coming though on email these days it gets harder and harder not to just delete everything.

Very best wishes

Julie Foai
