"Tight, gorgeous harmonies, completely engaging performers who know how to mix top of the class talent with a healthy dose of irreverent fun."

Susie Keynes, Fruit Music



Kaya, four amazing female singers with the on-stage charisma usually likened to hip-hop MC’s, performed a very moving set, with each member taking turns in leading the group through originals of differing styles and unique interpretations of classic covers such as Bob Marley’s “Buffalo Soldier” and The John Butler Trio’s “Zebra”. What makes Kaya so entertaining to watch is their familiarity with both their music and each other which combines for an almost cabaret style performance.

KAYA is a vocal band featuring the four exquisite voices of Emma Deans, Sally Stevens, Alexi Kaye and Juleiaah Boehm. Together, they create a truly captivating and heartfelt show that is both lyrically and melodically compelling - if not a little cheeky and sensuous as well.



With over 250 shows since their debut at The Vanguard (Sydney) in July 2005, Kaya has been touring extensively around the country, performing at such festivals as Woodford 05 & 06, Blue Mountains Music Festival, Thredbo Blues Festival, Toyota Gympie Muster, Caloundra Festival, Great Southern Blues & Rockabilly Festival, Surry Hills Festival to name a few in addition to performing supports shows for acclaimed artists such as Jimmy Cliff, Lior, Dallas Frasca, Renee Geyer, Afro Moses, Fruit & Canada's Serena Ryder.



KAYA are regulars at The Vanguard (Newtown), The Basement (Sydney), The Supper Club (Darlinghurst),The Brass Monkey (Cronulla), Heritage Hotel (Bulli) and The Clarendon (Katoomba)



KAYA has independently released the Kaya EP (2005), Kaya Live Album (2006), Somebody’s Lyin Single (2007) and Kaya Christmas (2008)



KAYA was selected for a SXSW Music Conference virtual showcase via SecondLife.com in March 2007, the ladies continue to tour extensively and are currently receiving airplay on Triple J, ABC and community stations nationally.

In 2007, KAYA was selected as a NOVA 100 unsigned artist and awarded a MusicNSW regional touring grant!



Emma, Juleiaah, Alexi and Sally started singing together as KAYA at the end of 2004 and haven't stopped since then. Originally they got together to arrange Lyin' for a Uni project of Emma's and to support each other in their songwriting and singing ambitions but soon realised that singing together created a sound and a feeling that they had not encountered before.



It is an enriching and healing experience for them and they love to pass on this feeling to their audiences.

KAYA are always very keen to lend their voices to charities and have performed at The Hilton for Canteen, Gearins Hotel for Oxfam and The Westin for Diabetes Buzz Ball, International Womens Day and for Hearts in Union in Orange. Kaya are also perfect features at corporate events or any other celebrations and have been asked to share their talents for the Wine Society of Australia in Sydney and Johnson and Johnson in Port Douglas to name but a few and have performed at Government House, Parliment House, The Westin and Hilton Hotel and many more venues.



"Let your soul be moved to the very core as the four exquisite voices of Kaya give you aural pleasure!! Their inventive, quirky, soulful, magical sound is truly original in the world of acapella; captivating audiences with sensual storytelling and heartfelt harmonies"
