Tama takes Manhattan

Triumph of Time, the debut album by New York-based musician Tama Waipara, has been well received both locally and internationally. His US label – ObliqSound – is promoting the album as “a diverse musical blueprint without borders. A fluid and eclectic foray into R&B, jazz, classical, Latin rhythms and an amalgam of exotic indigenous music from around the globe, the entire album reverberates with a candor, intensity and stirring spirituality.” Waipara is steadily building a dedicated US and European fan-base, with high profile performances at Fabric in London and New York’s Public Theatre.
