Whakataukī of the Week with Jackson Owens

From Nights, 9:25 pm on 2 December 2024

Every Monday to start our week off on here Nights, we invite a guest on the show to share a whakataukī - a Māori proverb - that's meaningful to them.

Tonight we're talking to musician Jackson Owens (Ngāti Tūwharetoa, Ngāti Awa, Te Arawa, Ngāi Tahu) who has just released a new single called Something Good.

Jackson grew up in Tūrangi before jetting off to Los Angeles at the age of 16 to joining the boy band Far Young before he moved back to New Zealand to start his solo career.
