Loopy Tunes on Tour - Info Page

Kia ora! Mālō e lelei!

Welcome to our LOOPY TUNES ON TOUR – INFO PAGE!

Twice a year, in April, and then again in October, we have been touring different regions of our beautiful motu/country! During our week-long tour we spend most of our time running music sessions at local Preschools, will hold public concerts for local tamariki and whānau, and offer evening workshops for educators of young tamariki. Scroll down to the bottom of the page to check out where we’ve toured so far and where we’re headed to, next!

For those new to our mahi/work, here’s a quick wee intro… ko Leah tōku ingoa, ko Siu taku teina, ko ‘Loopy Tunes Preschool Music’ ta māua pakihi. My sister and I are a children’s music duo, usually known as ‘Loopy Tunes’. We are Ōtautahi | Christchurch based and have been involved in children’s music for about 14 years now and are in our sixth year of running it as our full-time gig!

We love to create, perform, and release waiata that is intentionally bilingual and intentionally for younger tamariki. However, we also create waiata that the whole whānau can enjoy and have a wee kanikani to, too! For more info on what we do, and who we are, then check out our Artist Bio.
