Vegas-based, LA-raised genre bending artist Kami Kehoe’s pop inspired sound pushes the boundaries of modern music, inspiring her audience to create art, be their true selves, and spread love.
Kami knew her calling was music after she wrote her first song at the age of 6, and through performing her song, realized that words can help people and the power that music holds. She formed a band with her sisters when she was a child, taking on the role of drummer, back up vocalist, and writer. After they broke up, Kami felt lost without music in her life, so she taught herself to produce and began writing songs. Now 3 years later, Kami has written over 100 original songs. Kami credits her upbringing with the creation of her unique sound, as she grew up listening to a wide berth of genres. She takes inspiration from the catchy hooks and edge of rock/punk, the bass lines and drum patterns of R&B, the metaphors and deep meanings of alternative-indie and folk music, and the flows of hip hop.
With influences like Russ, Paramore, Hippo Campus, Amy Winehouse, and Kali Uchis, Kami’s sound encompasses multiple genres such as soul, folk, R&B, rock, and hip hop. She writes music from personal experiences, and feels strongly that through sharing a piece of her heart to the world, she might help someone else understand how they are feeling. Kami believes that her purpose is to heal, and by creating art and music she is able to shine light on the love left in the world.
“My motto is “kure the world” because I know one day I will have a positive impact on a generation of people. If I am able to change one person’s life through my songs or through the words I say, then I’ve reached my goal”, she says.
Kami’s current project, titled “drama queen”, ranges from heart-wrenching messages to “brattier” topics, focusing on the emotional aspects of life. “drama queen” showcases her ability to weave together different styles and genres while creating a cohesive experience, proving that Kami is set to take the world by storm.
