Emma Paki - New Zealand singer and songwriter.

Born 1968 in Whakatane. Her debut album "Oxygen of Love" had two major hits, "System Virtue" produced by Neil Finn and "Greenstone" produced by Mark Hart. She has toured with Sheryl Crow, Crowded House and Dave Dobbyn.

A greatly underrated singer - "Greenstone" and "System Virtue" represent two of the best urban R&B songs produced in New Zealand, and she certainly deserves comparison to Bic Runga.
