He kaiwaiata no Ahitereiria a Saygrace. Engari, ahakoa tona taitamarikitanga, ko Grace Sewell (te ingoa tuturu o te kotiro) kua eke kee ki te tihi o te rongonui puoro o te ao. I tenei ra e mohiotia ana ia mo tana waiata kore You Don't Own Me. I eke ia ki te tuunga rangatira i roto i nga raarangi o te ao, tae atu ki te tuunga tuatahi i Ahitereiria.
Ko nga tau tuatahi o Saygrace
I whanau a Grace i te marama o Aperira 1997 i Sunnybank, he taone nui o Brisbane, i te takutai moana o Ahitereiria. I tona kainga tupu, i uru ia ki te kura Katorika o nga Hunga Tapu katoa, i muri mai ka whakawhitia ki te kura a Our Lady of Lourdes. Ko te aroha mo te waiata i kitea i roto i te kotiro mai i te tamarikitanga. E ai ki ona ake maharatanga, i a ia i te kura tuatahi, i whakarongo a Sewell ki nga titonga a Smokey Robinson, Amy Winehouse, J. Joplin, Shirley Bassey.
Ko te whanau Grace he pakari nga pakiaka puoro. Ko ona koroua he wahanga o nga tuakana o Gibb Vee Gees tokotoru i te tekau tau atu i 1970. Ko nga matua o te kotiro i mahi ngaio ki nga puoro, kaore e taea te pa ki te whiriwhiri i te huarahi oranga o a raatau tamariki. Ko Conrad te tuakana o Grace, he kaiwaiata ngaio hoki. I rongonui ia na tana whai waahi ki te rekoata o te rekoata o te Norwegian DJ Kygo, i tukuna i te tau 2014. He rekoata tenei ara i te tau 2015, me te 1 piriona roma i runga i te ratonga roma Spotify.
Ko te angitu tuatahi o Conrad Sewell i whai i muri i te waiata takitahi Start Again. I eke tenei tohu ki te nama 1 i te Autereria ARIA Charts 2015. I uru ki tenei tūtohi i te wa ano ko Grace, nana i timata tana waiata hei kaiwaiata. Ko Conrad raua ko Grace Sewell te tuakana tuatahi ki Ahitereiria i eke ki te tihi o nga reanga o te motu hei kaitoi takitahi.
Te timatanga o te mahi puoro
I timata te mahi waiata takitahi a Grace i te tau 2015, i te wa i hopukina e ia he putanga uhi o te waiata na te kaiwaiata Ingarangi a Jessie J mo Dropout Live UK. I maioha ratou ki te kaha o te reo o te rangatahi o Ahitereiria me te tono kia mahi ia ki Amerika. I whiwhi a Grace Sewell i tana kirimana rekoata tuatahi me RCA-Record. I wehe te kotiro i tona whenua whenua o Brisbane, ka haere ki te mahi ki tawahi, i te American Atlanta.
I konei ka tuhia e te kaiwaiata tana waiata tuatahi, rongonui rawa atu, Kaua koe e pupuri i ahau. Na Queens Jones te rekoata i hanga. I rekoata tahitia te kotahi me tetahi kaitoi rap G-Eazy. Tata tonu, ka puta ia ki roto i te ao puoro reo Ingarihi. Na i runga i te taumata o te ao.
Waiata tuatahi
I te whenua taketake o Grace i Ahitereiria, tata tonu ka eke te waiata ki te tuunga tuatahi o te tūtohi ARIA o te motu, ka riro i a ia te taitara "platinum" hit. Mena i te timatanga o Mei ka noho te tangata takitahi ki te tuunga 1, katahi ka tae ki te mutunga o te marama ka eke ki te parade hit. I kaha hoki ia ki te eke ki te tihi o nga mahere Shazam (Ahitereiria) me iTunes (Aotearoa). Ko tenei titonga i te tau 14 i noho te turanga rangatira mo te maha o nga whakaari i runga Spotify me etahi atu ratonga romaroma. I eke ano te waiata ki te 2015 o runga i te raarangi o Amerika Te Tai Tokerau mo te tau 10.
I hangahia tenei waiata i te tuatahi hei whakanui i nga maharatanga o te kaiwaiata Amerika a Lesley Gore, i mate i etahi marama i mua. Ko te mutunga mai, kare koe e whai ake i ahau mo Grace he "paahi" ki te ao puoro nui, he tino "tuwhera" ki nga teitei o te ao puoro Olympus. Na, ko te mahi tuatahi i te mahi tahi me te tapanga RCA Records i tutuki nga tumanako katoa o te kaihanga me te kaiwaiata.
