Michael Chow led the show again this morning on Nesia Daily, bringing you stories from a number of Pasifika creatives.
While Michael Chow and Jacob McQuire were in Honiara last week for the Pacific Games, they got to meet one of the most-beloved musicians of our generation from Solomon Islands… Wally Pazzi! Wally spoke about how his parents weren’t too keen on the idea of him becoming a musician initially, and what it’s been like returning back to music after a career break.
We were honoured to be joined by Angela Tiatia, Sydney-based Samoan artist, who shared her incredible story with us this morning. Angela didn’t go to art school until she was in her 30s, and is now on the international stage, sharing our Pasifika culture with the world.
Nesia Daily also heard from our local correspondent in Tahiti, Tiare Tu’uhia about the Pacific Games, a bad lychee season, and Christmas!
