Deva Mahal was born with blues in her blood. Beginning from her upbringing in Kaua’i, Hawaii to discovering her voice in New Zealand, it’s there where she solidified her vision of becoming an artist. She is a diva, goddess with a pacific connection. A powerful exotic softness. We see her story as the pacific queen rises. In the lush Tapapakanga landscape and bush, we go wide, big and beautiful. Director Serena Stevenson say’s Deva’s story is as smooth and colourful as Deva’s personality. Delve into Splore Festival's mini music documentary series. It showcases five iconic acts as they take centre stage at Splore and reflect on what they love about Tāmaki Makaurau and performing beachside at Tāpapakanga Regional Park. Directed by Serena Stevenson and made with support from Auckland Unlimited to celebrate Auckland UNESCO City of Music.
