SOLO TOUR with special guest Mel Parsons Anika Moa has been nominated as a finalist
in this year’s New Zealand Music Awards on October 7th for Best Female Solo Artist,
Album Of The Year, and Best Pop Album. Right after the awards she takes to the
highways of New Zealand for a solo national tour that takes in 21 shows from
October to December.

Playing songs from her new album Love In Motion and of course her extensive back catalogue. Anika’s love for touring Aotearoa, meeting people, not to mention sampling local wine and cuisine, is infectious. She is sure to charm audiences far and wide with her heartfelt songs, razor sharp wit and a passion for
performing live, she exudes in her performances.

Kicking off in Auckland at the Mangere Art’s Centre Nga Tohu o Uenuku on Thursday 21st October the 21 date tour will take her to all corners of New Zealand before she plays her final date in Wellington at the Ruby Lounge on Saturday 4th December. Watch out for the Mazda with the guitars out the windows, and souvenir flags waving on the aerial, this tour will cap an eventful year for Anika.
Her fourth album Love In Motion was released locally in April of this year, and sees an Australian release in September through EMI. It has been nominated for Album Of The Year and Best Pop Album in the 2010 New Zealand Music Awards Anika has been working on a Te Reo record to be
released in 2011 Runnning Through The Fire has been nominated as a finalist in the 2010 Apra Silver Scrolls – her second Silver Scroll nomination In July Anika raised awareness for the Women’s
Refuge Appeal through an auction on Trade Me, with 29000+ people viewing the page, and 200+ bidders vying for the prize pack of tickets to an Anika show, albums, posters and merchandise, and a signed Takamine accoustic guitar. The winning bid was $7000. Thanks goes to Mazda & Eventfinder for their support.

West Coast singer songwriter Mel Parsons will join Anika for all dates on the tour. Her album’ Over My
Shoulder’ was released last year through Border Music. Graham Reid said “..an album that deserves to
grab serious attention” . She toured New Zealand last year and looks forward to playing to new audiences with Anika.
