Please join us for a Notes on Tāmaki live music performance with WAIWHAI. Descendant of Te Parawhau, Te Uriroroi and Ngāti Mahuta, founder of Noa Records, and inter-dimensional artist, WAIWHAI. (Rāhana Tito-Taylor) walks under the tutelage of many giants in form and spirit from various musical traditions as an exponent of taonga puoro (traditional Maori instruments), psychedelic groove music, and avant-garde beats - think Hirini Melbourne meets Sun Ra meets Jeff Parker meets Les Rallizes Dénudés meets Ras G. WAIWHAI.(fka WhyFi.) has been a trailblazing force within the Tāmaki Makaurau and wider Aotearoa music scene since the mid 2010’s, an artist who leans courageously into traditional and iconoclastic tendencies to stretch and weave sound and feeling, summoning spontaneous music that wades between the strange and familiar.
While you are with us on level 2, be sure to check out our Encore! exhibition running from 15 April to 29 August 2026.
