Clinton Tokona is the bass player for iconic New Zealand band Weta. Tookie (or Toks as he is known) and I have been good friends since Weta released their debut (and only!) album ‘Geographica’ back in 2000. We met backstage at Kiwi high school band competition The Pepsi Smokefree Rockquest which I was competing in with my first band 1QA and Weta were the guest performers. Since then Toks and I have played in a bunch of different projects with each other and have enjoyed many a lol over a coffee/tea/beer/cigarette/other.

After the death of his brother Aaron Tokona (the principal singer/songwriter for Weta) earlier this year the band have remastered their record and are celebrating it’s 20th anniversary along with a new single entitled ‘So Far, So Close’.

Toks and I talk about boxing, bass playing, cheap eggs benedict, his brother Aaron, how he (maybe) met Flea (but DEFINITELY met Neil Finn) and a bunch more.

All music on the podcast by Joshua Moriarty & All The Colours.
