Jordyn's debut album has just dropped, and one of its standout tracks is ‘Māku Anō’! 💌
The bilingual song features fellow Māori singer Mohi and celebrates the act of regaining something as a collective. Earlier this year, Jordyn with a Why was nominated for Best Māori Artist at the Aotearoa Music Awards.
The song was released during Te Wiki o te Reo Māori (Māori Language Week) 2024, and celebrates Jordyn's Māori-Samoan heritage.

Jordyn shares her journey of reconnecting with her culture, despite not growing up with te reo Māori. She hopes her story will inspire others to embrace their own cultural heritage.
