Athena Aperta

Description

Athena Aperta is a multi-instrumentalist as well as an outstanding vocalist & spoken word artist too. She is also a very valuable songwriter and during her live sets is able to get words from the audience and write songs on the spot! Once she managed to put antidisestablishmentarianism into a song - that definitely kept the audience engaged. She has wonderful jazz vocals, as well as a soothing voice accompanied by folk music, yet is also able to be super energetic for pop music!
She can play guitar and piano, as well as play with a band too. She's a great people person, loves to help other ... s and is a genuinely kind & fun person. (She's also sober, so there's no worries about her being too hungover to work the next day!). She's a vocal coach herself, and so likes to put into practice the advice that she gives to her students.

This song-list weaves in multiple genres, styles and ranges. Athena Aperta has an impressive vocal range D3/Db3 to B5 as well as the ability to delve into different textured vocals depending on the style and genre of the piece. She’s sang on pop, deep house, acrobats, soul, folk, jazz, rap tracks, and so much more. Truly one of the most mesmerising artists of this time.

Meet the Act

I'm a super personable person, I've been able to make lots of connections during my time in the industry. I always make sure to smile and say hi to strangers on the street. My mission is 'to help other people feel less alone, one song at a time'. I absolutely love singing my heart out, and seeing others reaction warms my soul!
