Following the release of her acclaimed album Kingmaker Tami Neilson played a series of sold-out concerts across Aotearoa.
Tami was joined on stage in Tamaki Makaurau by the Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra for this special live performance at the Kiri Te Kanawa Theatre in July 2022. RNZ Music's Andre Upston was there to capture the magic:
