Olivia’s Bio:
The K in Olivia K, Khe-ra, means “Daughter of the Sun,” which perfectly describes her joyous outlook on life and fiery disposition. Olivia K has lived in Brooklyn her whole life, except four years uptown studying music at Columbia University. Her iconic voice and original writing can be heard on Netflix’s Tales of the City, as well as in commercials, and most unusually, the subways of NYC. As the DIY Funk Queen of East New York, she has led her band Olivia K and the Parkers in opening for Kermit Ruffins, and has her anthem “Native New Yorker” archived in the permanent archives of Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM).
