Tiki Taane is a multi-platinum award winning artist and considered a pioneer in the New Zealand music scene with a career spanning 20 years.
Rising to prominence as a member of leading New Zealand band Salmonella Dub, Tiki progressed from sound engineer to fully fledged front man
and penned some of the bands biggest hits including “Love Your Ways” and “For the Love of It” amongst others.
Since embarking on his solo artist career in January 2007, Tiki has gone from strength to strength, becoming one of New Zealand’s most
popular and diverse award-winning artists renowned as much for his powerful live performances as he is for his anthems.
Doubling as an audio engineer for top drum n bass groundbreakers Shapeshifter, Tiki is also renowned as a remix producer and gifted
performance MC who has a solid reputation for boosting shows, musical works and recordings worldwide.
In November 07, he released his debut LP "Past Present Future" which achieved double platinum sales and picked up a swag of awards. His
beautiful acoustic love ballad “Always On My Mind” rose to No. 1 and broke two all-time NZ records - it sat in the charts for a record 54 weeks
and was also the first-ever digital single to achieve platinum sales.
In 2011, Tiki released his second solo album "In The World Of Light" which again broke new ground for NZ music. Where he goes to from here
is anyone's guess. Whatever it is, it's sure to be a helluva ride. « hide |
