Biography
Indigenous Australian on her mother's side, and Tongan on her father's, Mi-Kaisha has a gigantic family - so large she can't remember everyone's names!

Since she was a little girl, her parents have been hosting large family gatherings where music plays a big role. Mi-Kaisha sings for her relatives, and as is Tongan custom, they'll tuck mony into her clothes and hair. Although a bit embarrassing for her, it's proving quite a lucrative exercise.

Mi-Kaisha's voice can be heard on the award-winning soundtrack for the film The Sapphires. She had auditioned for a role in the movie but was considered too tall (at almost 5 foot ten). However, the producers loved her voice, and invited her to record songs with Jessica Mauboy. She rates walking the red carpet at the film's premiere to be one of her life's highlights.
