Our thoughts and prayers are today with the Yandall family as Mary Yandall, of the all-female New Zealand singing group the Yandall sisters, has passed away peacefully over the weekend.
Performing alongside her sisters Adele and Pauline, Mary entertained audiences both here and abroad for over 30 years. The Yandall Sisters' most well-known song, Sweet Inspiration, stayed on the NZ Top 20 singles chart for eight weeks in 1974.
The song also featured on our Pasifika: The Collection CD in 2010.
The group was named New Zealand Entertainer of the Year in 1977 and has continued performing since.
RIP Anna Mary Yandall - you will be missed.
DNK World Music Set To Release Debut Compilation
27th January 2012
Following their recent chart success, DNK World Music are pleased to announce they are releasing their debut label compilation: DNK World Music Presents: The Academy on March 26th. The announcement comes at an exciting time for the
independent Auckland label, which has also just signed an exclusive distribution and marketing deal with Frequency Media Group.
Founded by Nick "Karnel" Williams and producer Daniel "D.Love" Love in 2010, the prolific pair have been independently releasing albums and singles for the last four years, developing a large following with Auckland's youth, and producing
Top 10 singles for other artists including J-Geek and remixes for J Williams & Erakah.
DNK World Music will be showcasing four main artists on the album including R&B Singer Donell Lewis, hip hop artist Rickey Okay, producer D.Love and label founder Karnel. D-Love is an accomplished producer who recently produced the smash hit
"My Baby" by Pieter T, which is currently a Top 30 NZ single and has over 300,000 youtube views. He also released the single "Skinny Jeans" in 2011, featuring rapper Rickey Okay, that generated substantial viral buzz amongst the Auckland
Dance community. At just 19-years-old Donell Lewis rounds off the line-up as an exciting up-coming talent in the New Zealand R&B scene.
DNK World Music Presents: The Academy will be available from all good record stores from March 26.
