BASS

I am from the beautiful and heavenly Island of Samoa. My Mum is from the villages of Saleleologa, Vailoa Palauli, Malie, and Vaimoso. My Dad hails from the villages of Safotu, and Faleū Manono. My faith, family and culture are of the utmost importance to me and I would be nothing without it. I also love to sing. I am currently studying a conjoint degree in Music and Law at the University of Auckland. My singing journey started in church singing for youth, choir and different performances and events. Since then I have worked with some great people like Claire Caldwell, Johnathan Lemalu, Roderick Williams, Catrin Johnsonn, James Harrison and Wade Kernot. I was born in Australia and raised in South Auckland. I’m proud of where I come from, and eternally grateful to be part of NZYC 2026-2028.
