  • Waiata Anthems | Sing 

Waiata Anthems builds on the momentum of the hugely successful 2019 compilation album which saw successful pop songs by artists like Six60, Benee and Stan Walker

re-recorded in te reo Māori and skyrocketed to the top of the Official New Zealand Album Chart.  

The creator of Waiata/Anthems Dame Hinewehi Mohi says Waiata Anthems Week is the ongoing celebration of our nation’s heritage language, using the accessibility and power of popular music to increase the reach of our unique cultural identity to all of Aotearoa.  

“From waiata that broke new ground such as ‘E Ipo’ by Prince Tui Teka and ‘Poi E’ by Pātea Māori Club to waiata stalwarts like Moana Maniapoto, Rob RuhaMaisey Rika and Maimoa, we must never forget the songs that have moved us and the voices that championed for change.”
