Award-winning singer-songwriter Teeks - born Te Karehana Gardiner-Toi - joined Niva and Beatrice on this week's episode to discuss life behind the microphone for one of New Zealand's rising musical superstars. In his first podcast interview, Teeks discusses the reasons behind his stage name and why he feels like a different person on stage, maintaining a private life when you are in the public eye, surrounding himself with the right people, why he doesn't want to be boxed in as being just a Māori singer, and why his 'surrender' tattoo comes from a positive place.
