Born and raised in New York, Kyami’s journey into music began at a young age, combining a passion for art, football and Taekwondo, where she achieved a 2nd degree black belt. Now based in Manchester, she has captivated audiences with her alternative J-pop R 'n' B sound and her dynamic performances have graced international festivals and earned glowing praise from BBC 1Xtra and BBC Introducing on Radio 1. Taking experiences from her childhood to travelling overseas, the music tells a relatable story in a fresh new way with self-reflective lyricism, soul-driven melodies and production influences from pop, RnB, electronic and hip-hop.
iamkyami is paving her own way and looking forward to her Rochdale debut.
