From the Album Waiata Anthems (2022)

In this te reo Māori version of Fly My Pretties song 'Family Tree', frontman Barnaby Weir sings and performs much of the instrumentation; mātanga reo (language expert) Wharenoka Wano provides the beat, on a drum from Parihaka. 'Tō Kātua Whānau' was released alongside an episode of Waiata Anthems, in which the personal meaning of the song is explored. Weir is on a journey to reconnect to his whakapapa, a link that was lost when his mother was adopted as a child. In the video directed by Waiata Anthems director Julia Parnell, Weir performs the track in the studio, and visits Parihaka.
