Kiyomi
by Kiyomi Hawley
Kiyomi 聖美 (meaning pure beauty) is a Japanese American singer/songwriter living in NY that was born into a very musical family. She has had an immense passion for singing and music ever since she can remember, and has pursued it her whole life. Her education in Classical Voice at NYU, and Compostion at SUNY Purchase has helped in her songwriting, however she mostly uses her ear and inspirations that come through her to write her music. Her lyrics come straight from her life experiences which are constantly being recorded in her 23 journals (and counting).Kiyomi knows that music has the ability to really impact people as well as connect us all together, and that has been a main driver for her to keep pursuing it, even though it can be a very difficult road. She has performed all across the US, including performances for foreign ambassadors and members of the UN. She’s also has had the opportunity to perform in Japan and Korea. If you’re born to do something in this world, it is painfu

Child In Me
