As part of The Horizon Festival, the award-winning Modern Maori Quartet invites you to enjoy a fresh take on the classic Maori show band.
Their signature cabaret-style show ’An Evening with the Modern Maori Quartet’ is a celebration of humour and heavenly harmonies putting their stamp on Kiwi classics and some of today’s biggest hits right here in Eumundi.
Maaka Pohatu, Francis Kora, Matu Ngaropo and Jamie McCaskill mix old-school charm with modern quirk, spiced with Maori culture for an unforgettable evening of waiata (song), stories and fun.
A fresh take on classic Maori showbands, the Modern Maori Quartet (MMQ) are a good-looking, suave and multi-talented Maori foursome who love crooning their spin on modern and classic numbers.
Suit ’em up in their number ones, comb their hair, shine their shoes, hand them a guitar or two and they’ll have you melting like golden syrup on a piece of fresh hot fried bread!
