When the sun is still rising but the coffee’s gone cold, how do you fill your cup?
For TheWesternGuide, Remember My Name feels like that quiet moment - a steady reminder that keeps him grounded in his artistry, with both boots on the ground even as his name begins to travel further than ever before. There’s also a deeper thread running through the song for young Pasifika men growing up in Aotearoa, grounded in the line referencing a “Samoan boy born in milk and honey.”
Filmed exclusively at Studio 1 Vintage Guitars, this intimate acoustic performance strips the song back to its core.
Taine Ngatai joins TheWesternGuide, performing on a stunning 1958 Martin D-28.
Filmed in-store at Studio 1 Vintage Guitars in Victoria Park Market, Auckland. Auckland’s home of vintage, rare and premium instruments, including New Zealand’s biggest range of USA-made Martin guitars.
