THIS EVENT HAS ENDED
A two-time Grammy nominated singer, songwriter and musician from Australia, she is a composer, instrumentalist, producer, vocalist and poet who approaches all of these self-taught disciplines with an intuitive, infectious grace which sent her on a journey to sculpt songs that have been received and treasured across the world. It is a world she has travelled many times over with her band Hiatus Kaiyote, who along with Nai Palm, have become household names since they first began playing together in Melbourne in 2011.

After the independent release of their debut album Tawk Tomahawk, word of mouth caught on like wildfire and within months they were championed by a host of R&B and hip hop's most respected tastemakers and icons (Ahmir "Questlove" Thompson, Jazzy Jeff, Erykah Badu, Prince). This eventually led to their signing with Salaam Remi's new imprint Flying Buddha (on Sony Music Masterworks) in 2013, and a Grammy Nomination for Best R&B Performance for their single 'Nakamarra feat. Q-Tip.' This Grammy nomination made them the first Australian artist ever to be recognized by the Grammys in an R&B category.

Hiatus Kaiyote exceeded expectations with their critically acclaimed sophomore release, the opus Choose Your Weapon, which earned them a second Grammy nomination ("Breathing Underwater" for Best R&B Performance), and cemented their uncompromising artistic vision to transcend genre and the trappings and clichés of the industry. These choices have led to the band's continual growth in a lane of their own design, garnering deep respect and actively inspiring today's most celebrated musical icons. In 2016, producer 9th Wonder sampled them for Anderson .Paak's album Malibu. And in 2017, their album has been sampled and used on two of Hip Hop's biggest releases, opening Drake's project More Life ("Free Smoke"), and closing Kendrick Lamar's album Damn ("Duckworth").

This success has set the stage for Nai Palm's first solo release, Needle Paw (Sony Music Masterworks).

"This record is a very personal leap into the deep end. I wanted to make something with no landmarks to hide behind and no team to fall back on" - Nai Palm.
