If you want more nominations for future posts -- check out Martha (http://www.martharedbone.com/) Redbone (http://www.myspace.com/martharedbonemusic) and Hinewehi (http://www.pbs.org/adventuredivas/nz/divas/mohi.html) Mohi (http://www.hinewehi.com/). Absolutely beautiful people, inside and out, and voices like angels.
YouTube is criminally lacking in stuff by either of 'em, but at least here's a live clip of Martha in NYC last year:
I am bummed that it's so hard to find Oceania tracks online -- you can at least listen to Pukaea (The Trumpet) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=epyxn-OsCKI) and Kotahitanga (Union) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZj2JqknA0Y), but the videos are just random things folks put together. There was an official promo video for the second song, at least, and it was GORGEOUS, lush NZ scenery and Hinewehi singing her heart out in a lovely green dress and some real hotties doing the haka in the middle...but I can't find more than a 30-second clip of it anywhere online. :(
