"This tour is more than me playing songs – it’s about bringing the spirit of the islands to every stage," says etu. "I want people to leave feeling seen, uplifted, and part of something bigger than themselves."

With songs in English, Tongan, Samoan, Fijian, and Chuukese, Sunflower is a rich tapestry of sound and storytelling – a heartfelt exploration of belonging, gratitude, and resilience.
