Everywhere you look at the moment it seems that Anika Moa is there. And that's a good thing as she's worked like a Trojan since 1999 and it's great to see her status recognised.
Anika's fifth solo album Queen at the Table was released in April with producer and musiccollaborator Jol Mullholland in the producer's chair.
Showing her versatility Anika also won a Tui Award at last year's Apra Awards for her children's album Songs for Bubbas, adding to her stash, which started with Songwriter of the Year, and Best Female vocalist back in 2002.
Now Anika and Mullholland are taking the Queen at the Table album on a fifteen date tour around New Zealand.
With Mullholland's multi-instrumental skills and Anika Moa's vocals it will be a night not to miss.
And look out for surprises too as Anika heads off the stage into the audience to uncover new musical talents.
You'll hear new favourites from the Queen at the Table, like the current single Running, Lonely Tears, Jealous and Fly, plus older favourites and a few covers to create a mesmerising mix.
Anika says she is also privileged to have SJD along for the ride as support act.
Following a number of dates in the South Island the show lands in the North Island on Thursday September 24 at Masterton's King St Live, Wanganui's Savage Club Rooms Friday September 25, in Wellington at the San Fran, Saturday September 26, at Auckland's OSPA Theatre, Thursday October 1, in Hamilton at Gravity Bar on Saturday October 3, and in Taranaki at Butler's Reef Hotel, Oakura, on Sunday October 4.
