In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. At around 2 years old I used to love singing the traditional Tokelau song "Tagi Sina" because I had heard my dad's band, Te Vaka, perform his version of it on tour night after night. I would belt it loudly on a never-ending loop of half a verse.
Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Mai Anamua” My grandfather is from a tiny island nation called Tokelau. I didn't grow up speaking the language, in fact there are very few who do. But after a lot of effort and self teaching, finally one day I was able to write this song fully in the language.
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Walking the "blue carpet" at the World Premiere of Disney's "Moana" alongside my dad. We were dressed in bold Pacific designs and I was so proud of him for all his work on the soundtrack and honoured to have been a small part of it too.
Olivia Foa'i has also released music as a member of Te Vaka.
