All music written by Te Vaka group leader Opetaia Foa'i and sung in the Tokelau language. Tokelau is a group of islands on the coral outriders of Polynesia - three far flung atolls, with a total land mass of only four square miles. Opetaia Foa'i was born in a Tokelauan community in Samoa, a community deeply and spiritually involved with music.
