Of Māori descent, he identified with the Ngati Kahungunu and Rangitane iwi. He was born in Dannevirke, Hawke's Bay, New Zealand on 4 March 1909.[1][2]

He served with 28th New Zealand (Maori) Battalion during World War II, and led the battalion's concert party. After the war he assembled a quintet, and in October 1948 recorded a version of his song ‘Blue smoke’ with singer Pixie Williams to a Hawaiian-style backing - the first record wholly produced in New Zealand from composition to pressing, and provided the début for the TANZA record label.[3][4] It topped the New Zealand radio hit parades for six weeks, and It went on to be covered by a number of overseas artists, including Dean Martin in 1951.[5][6]
