This week on Access Granted, Lowanna sits down with Mi-Kaisha Masella for a proper yarn. It’s relaxed, funny, and full of those real moments that happen when the mics are on but it still feels like a catch-up with your girlfriend.

We talk about her music journey, her NAIDOC win and what that recognition meant to her as a First Nations and Tongan woman. She shares how that moment felt, not just professionally, but personally too.

One of the most beautiful parts of the conversation is when she speaks about her sister and the close bond they share. You can hear the love and loyalty there. It’s grounding. It’s genuine. It says a lot about who she is beyond the stage.

We also get into her time in New York City... the growth, the culture, the confidence it built, and how stepping into a bigger world shaped her vision as an artist.

It’s a warm, honest episode. Plenty of laughs, reflective moments, and a reminder that behind the music is a beautiful young woman who’s deeply connected to family, culture, and purpose.
