Miami, FL

I'm Athena, a 20-year-old singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist from the vibrant melting pot of Miami. Growing up surrounded by so many cultural and musical influences really expanded my creativity from an early age. I pull inspiration from all over - finding power in an artist like Shakira's electrifying stage presence one minute, then connecting with the delicate vulnerability of someone like Gracie Abrams the next. For me, music is about forging human connections through self-expression. In my songs and performances, I embrace the duality of confidence and vulnerability as harmonious companions. It's about having the inner strength to be unabashedly yourself, while also courageously opening your heart. My sound is just a kaleidoscope of experiences and emotions fused together. I'm utilizing music as the prism to make sense of it all, while welcoming others to explore the complexity of their own identities right alongside me.
