Tai, who is originally from Stewart Island and now a Wanaka based musician, has been playing live music for 12 years. He is not afraid of the stage as he opened for the Doobie Brothers, Tiki Taane, Black Seeds, Elvis Costello... Over the years he built up lots of experience in playing live music, live looping and beatboxing at weddings, events, pub gigs etc... so he knows what the perfect wedding / event needs.
As a solo artist, he won Songstars Queenstown in 2014 with his song Guilty. He mainly plays covers with a ‘soulful blend of acoustic rumblings, peppered with a surprisingly powerful voice and precise playing’ as I quote The Source magazine. He is a wizard with vocals, guitar and looping! You are sure to have a great evening. He is the perfect fit!
Ideal for: dance music for corporate function, private party, wedding
