Kawehi is a new breed of musician, a one-woman-band from Lawrence, Kansas who uses technology to carry the weight of a full band on her own. The name Kawehi is symbolic of extremes; appropriate for an artist who pushes the limits of both digital music production and herself.

Kawehi gained notoriety due to a viral video of her covering Nirvana's "Heart Shaped Box" using only her voice, a small keyboard, and a sampler. Her performance captivated audiences as well as her ear for arrangement, and the video was an overnight sensation.
