Moa with her sons (Twitter) Mum and musician Anika Moa is about to release a new album inspired by spontaneous bedtime lullabies for her sons. Moa has two-year-old twins Barry and Taane with wife Azaria Universe, and motherhood has inspired Songs for Bubbas. The ten-track album includes eight original tracks and covers of classics, Oma Rapeti and You Are My Sunshine. The Adventures of Barry and Taane! was co-written with Azaria Universe for their two boys. There are three acoustic lullabies, Little Bird, Go to Sleep and Sweet Dreams, plus learning songs Tahi, Rua, Toru, Wha and Colours are Beautiful. “Making music for little people has been deeply liberating,” Moa says. “It’s very satisfying focusing your energy on creating music to entertain and delight, for love and laughter.” Songs for Bubbas will be on sale from 29 November and available on iTunes here
