Aneiki
Australian pop duo
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Aneiki was an Australian pop duo from Brisbane, Queensland, made up of Jennifer Waite and Grant Wallis.[1] The duo was originally called Halogen, but were forced to change their name after the Perth-based band Halogen established sole rights to the name's usage in Australia.
Aneiki worked with the songwriter Daniel Jones[2] and was signed to his label, Meridienmusik.[3] Their debut single, "Pleased to Meet You", reached number 26 on the ARIA Singles Chart, spending 18 weeks in the top 100[4] and was number 13 on 2001's Australian Artist Singles chart.[5] "Pleased to Meet You" was the most played Australian song on Australian radio in 2002. Waite and Wallis were awarded APRA's Breakthrough Songwriter of the Year in 2002,[6] an award they shared with Sia.
The follow-up singles "Superhero", "15 Minutes", and "Even Without You" reached numbers 48, 72 and 97.[7][8][9] Their debut album Words in Place of Objects reached number 87 on the ARIA Albums Chart.[10]
