"Yoyo Tuki, the voice of the island Rapa Nui". Like his ancestors who carved megalithic stone giants, Yoyo is an artist with a powerful ability to fuse tradition with innovation.

With over 15 years performing throughout high-profile music festivals and events in Polynesia, South America, Australia, Taiwan, USA and Europe - Yoyo is today Rapa Nui's most important international artist. 

A world class singer-songwriter, musician and indisputable music heavy weight. An artist that has maintained his traditions while embracing contemporary influences, breaking new ground and marking a whole generation of emerging and established musicians. 

"His songs reclaim Rapa Nui culture, communion with nature and the respect for the ancestors of the place. An artist that is different, committed with the idea of promoting the culture of his ancestral people.”
