Bic Runga’s accomplishments are already enough to label her a national treasure.
Signed at the age of 19, Bic Runga was the first female artist to self pen and self produce three consecutive albums to debut at number one. Drivein 1997 (seven times platinum), Beautiful Collision in 2002 (eleven times platinum) and Birds in 2005 (triple platinum.) Her debut single Drive won the prestigious APRA Silver Scroll (New Zealand's equivalent to the Ivor Novello.) Over her 20 year career she has won a dozen Tui awards (New Zealand's Grammys.) In 2006 she was made a member of the Order of Merit by The Queen for her contribution to music.

She gained an international audience when her song Sway featured in the soundtrack of the 1999 film American Pie and in 2005. She has shared stages with members of Radiohead and Wilco for Neil Finns' The Sun Came Out project and made a cameo appearance as a Vietnamese lounge singer in the movie Little Fish with Cate Blanchett and Sam Neill.
