Moonlight Madness

​Lou’ana - Tāmaki Makaurau based Artist vocalist and singer-songwriter.  Having carved a place for herself within Auckland’s vibrant music community over the past 6 years.  Lou’ana’s voice carries the stature of an old soul; a cosmic cocktail of sweet and soulful, with an added gritty, blues edge that references the golden age of Eta James, to the rawness of Stevie Nicks. Her heart and soul translates through sound, in that unexplainable alchemy that happens when music meets word.
 
Lou’ana’s first single Eye To Eye was released in early 2019 to critical acclaim, and was followed by the funk-infused showstopper Move Along. They landed Lou’ana with three 2020 Pacific Music Awards nominations for Best Pacific Music Video, Best Pacific Soul/R&B Artist and Best Pacific Female Artist.  While laying the groundwork for her debut releases, Lou’ana has performed all around New Zealand with lineups such as the inimitable funk troupe Hipstamatics, who have delivered the groove to a multitude of New Zealand festivals including Soundsplash, Splore, The National Jazz Festival and more.
 
‘Moonlight Madness’ is Lou’ana’s debut 11 track album, released October 2020 under the season of the Full Blue moon and on the cusp of Hallow’s eve, the album infuses her trademark soul, funk, jazz with a hint of her Pacific roots and a heavy dose of magic.  Lou’ana has transformed the album into an epic live show with a powerful 8-piece band – the Moonlight Madness Winter Tour - a show not to be missed!
