About Pixie Williams

Pikiteora "Pixie" Williams was a New Zealand singer best known for the song "Blue Smoke", recorded in 1949. "Blue Smoke" was the first single to be locally recorded and manufactured in New Zealand. "Blue Smoke" was written by Ruru Karaitiana and performed by Pixie Williams. It was a collaboration that nearly didn't happen. Pixie declined Ruru twice when he asked her to record his song. Two months later, after one final request, Pixie agreed. Blue Smoke subsequently launched Pixie's career. It was number one on the New Zealand charts for six weeks and sold around 50,000 copies. In 2019, she was inducted into the New Zealand Music Hall of Fame. Sources: 1 2 3
