Alewya

Ethiopian‑Egyptian Afro‑electronic singer‑producer blending Qur’an recitations, Ethiopian rhythms, and UK grime

Headliner


Alewya is an Ethiopian‑Egyptian artist, singer and producer born in Saudi Arabia and raised in Shepherd’s Bush, West London. Her music fuses her father’s devotional Qur’an recitations, Ethiopian sounds of Teddy Afro and Mulatu Astatke, her brother’s alternative rock influences, and her own fascination with garage, grime, R&B and hip‑hop. She released the debut album *Panther in Mode* (2021) and has performed at COLORS, Boiler Room Berlin and Glastonbury, touring with Little Simz. Her 2026 album *ZERO* was largely self‑produced and explores human contradictions and cross‑cultural encounters.
