Artist at the Waiata Maori music
awards.
Swiss-born Kiwi Andre Manella brings
an original, one-man-band style with
Sonic Delusion. His uniquely up-
beat, funky folk is full of irresistible
atmospheric joy, blending dynamic
layers of rhythm, tones, bass lines
and vocals.
As per usual kids (and adults) will
enjoy an assortment of games,
competitions, face painting, fun
activities, bouncy houses, carousel
and street performers including stilt walkers.
