Shame LOVES secrets.
Say it out LOUD,
and it LOSES its grip.
A true artist turns what they've lived into something you can feel. No hiding the messy parts.
A proud Kiwi singer, songwriter and storyteller, with my heart in India.
At 36, music found me through the handpan, and it saved me. At 38, I'm stepping into my next chapter as a performer.
I'm an ordinary human with a story to tell, and I don't sugarcoat it. My first album, 50 Shades of Joy, is a live show I'm taking on tour with my band.
Every tip goes into the album and the 2027 tour.
One hour to make you cry, laugh, cringe and maybe get a little (or a lot) turned on 🔥🔥🔥
A three-piece band: me on handpan, didgeridoo and vocals, with drums and bass.
Aotearoa × India fusion. All originals.
2027: New Zealand, Australia, Europe.
We've forgotten how to really feel. I sing my life, my mum's and my grandma's: 20 years of an eating disorder, type 1 diabetes, love and desire. I don't hold back.
Be confronted. Cringe a little. Cry a little.
India gave me the handpan. Then it gave me him, the man behind the drums. He's my rhythm maker, the heartbeat under every song, and he makes me sound (and look) good. Come to the show and hear our real-life love story, with all the spice revealed.
I own 10 handpans. These are the three I play on stage.
