2022 Best Folk Artist Tūī Awarded To Troy Kingi

2022 Best Folk Artist Tūī Awarded To Troy Kingi

Troy Kingi has done it again, this time beating out fellow finalists Miles Calder (and his album ‘Autopilot Life’) and folk duo We Mavericks (‘Grief’s a Gardener’), to be awarded the 2022 Best Folk Artist Tūī for his ‘Black Sea Golden Ladder’ album.

A collaboration between Kingi and singer/songwriter/producer Delaney Davidson, ‘Black Sea Golden Ladder’ is a collection of free-form compositions set to 10 original poems, documenting the life cycle of humankind.

Kingi has also collaborated with Hi Mama Productions to produce a visual representation of the album that explores an existential life experience.
