Bio

From the word 'Go' Soulstress Royala has taken to music leading her to her first debut Album 'Don't Mind Me'.

Settled in Okahu Bay Auckland, the 28 year old mother of Maori and Fijian descent grew up fond of music always knowing she wanted to sing. Royala and long time love Audio Engineer/Musician Carl Newman aka EQ built up their Recording Studio Mint Recordings in 2003 venturing into their careers as musicians. Over the years, studying at MAINZ was a big green light towards her chosen career deciding then that she was ready to go on stage, having the pleasure to sing as backing vocalist for bands The Kingites, Nat Rose, Lei-D Lee, Dam Native and Unity Pacific.

"Going Solo is achievable one step at a time" and with the tools necessary at home (or not far) and the experience consumed, she has done so with the talents of Daniel Harawira, Music Producer and Drummer to all tracks (drummer also for Che Fu & The Krates, Unity Pacific etc) and Carl Newman aka EQ, Producer, Engineer and Male Vocals (former MC for The Kingites).

'Don't Mind Me' is all about being content and trusting yourself to make wise decisions.. perspective is not important here though having heard other aspects on the album it certainly broadens it's obvious summery reggae vibe.

Royala Wilson (singer/songwriter)
