MAORI HAKA FOR WOMEN with Mihirangi
MIHIRANGI is an international performer. She was a finalist (and the judges' favorite) on NZ's Got Talent 2012. She just completed a 45-concert New Zealand tour to thank her fans. She is performing next at the Haida Gwaii Edge of The World Music Fest, Queen Charlotte Islands and then the Robson Valley Music Festival, Dunster, BC.
MIHIRANGI hails from Aotearoa, Land of the Eternal Light aka New Zealand. She grew up on a Marae (traditional village) in a small place in a valley surrounded by the forests and farms of Mangapeehi, grounded in traditional Maori wisdom and profound knowledge of genealogy. Mihirangi embodies her indigenous lineage roots of Ngati Rakeiora, Ngati Waikorara, Ngati Rahiri and Ngati Raukawa descent. She is from a line of Tohunga Wahine women who were keepers of whakapapa, of spiritual knowledge and healing. She is a woman out to make a difference: musically, socially, spiritually and culturally.
