S02 E04 - Mi-kaisha

R&B soul artist, Mi-kaisha, grew up on the streets of Sydney’s music scene. The soundtrack of her childhood included soulful tunes from the 90s and island tunes from her father’s Koori radio hip-hop show ‘island hopping’. She is a ‘city girl through and through’ and her artistry represents hard-hitting, often political messages about being a young Aboriginal and Tongan woman in Australia. 

So much of Mi-kaisha’s performance experience growing up was within the Aboriginal community, gigging and performing at community events. She is the woman she is today, because of the strong women in her community who have raised her to be unapologetic in everything she is and does.

With a chameleon voice that’s as massively powerful as it is shiveringly delicate, a deep-rooted purpose and message to share: it is no question that Mi-kaisha is a generational talent.
