Kawehi will perform in the Maui Arts & Cultural Center’s McCoy Studio Theater Friday, May 6, 2016, beginning at 7:30 p.m.

Hawai‘i-born independent artist, Kawehi (kuh-veh-hee), is known across the nation for her live shows as a “one-woman band,” creating intricate loops via beatboxing, a guitar, a midi keyboard and Ableton Live.

She is known for her opinionated songwriting, centering her messages around social issues and injustices.

Kawehi’s videos and songs have been featured on CBS News’s Most Viral Videos, Vimeo, Booooooom!, Sony Music, Huffington Post, Esquire, Spin, Elle, Maxim, People, Devour, Gizmodoand more.

Her original music can be found on commercials throughout Asia for MasterCard and Casio.

As an independent artist, Kawehi has taken to Kickstarter, raising funds for four EPs, a live album, a documentary, and a US national tour through crowd-funding alone—staying true to herself and her fans by making the kind of music she is proud of.

Kawehi is making a name for herself as a true DIY artist, creating music that is honest, creative and relatable—and she’s generating much-deserved attention from both fans and industry folk alike.

Tickets are $25 advance; $30 the day-of (plus applicable fees).
