NATTY DOLAIASI

Natty Dolaiasi from the Adegege tribe in Lau, Malaita in the Solomon Islands is one of the most powerful voices of traditional Solomons culture. Natty has for a long time been “a voice on the wilderness” expressing the tribal songs and culture. He brings to life the ancient chants of the tribal ancestors, advocating for stories, songs, poems, rhymes and drum beats to be remembered and celebrated. 


His passion is to share the ancient Solomons music for the benefit of future generations and with the music, as with all indigenous culture, comes a reverence and deep spiritual connection with nature and our earthly home. His message is clear: “We are Here, we exist and we are an essential part of this global family.”


Natty has represented the Solomon Islands internationally for decades commencing in 1995 with the renowned Siva Pacifica project. Highlights of his career have included Pacific Arts Festival 2016 Guam, Melanesian Arts Festival 2018, Qandamooka Festival 2018, Island Vibe Festival 2019, Wantok Sing Sing at Womad 2024, Cresfest 2025 as well as the huge achievement of being Cultural Director of the Pacific Games Opening and Closing Ceremonies 2023 and release of his first album, Sifoa in May 2025, via Wantok Musik. He has been regularly touring Australia and internationally since 2018.
