Kamali & Co.

The Cairns based musicians are a smooth eclectic blend of reggae, R’n’B and neo-soul sounds infused with their rustic soul harmonies. Their passion for music is both the fruit and the vehicle of what inspires them at heart. The heart and vision for the trio is to educate, inspire and encourage the growth of young leaders who add value to their families and communities.

Music for them as individuals and collectively, has always been a tool that has passed on the understanding of language, culture and values which continues to shape their lives towards the direction of success.

Alicia Mellor is grounding the music with her smooth bass. Her passion for creative arts was quickly recognised allowing her to showcasing her vocal talents on the world stage. In 2015 Alicia joined the Nanna Album world tour with Xavier Rudd & the United Nations, jump starting her professional career and establishing her as a vocalist. She continues to explore her passion for creative arts and is currently in the process of adding other elements of creative artistry to her specialised skillsets.

Kaweyova is the 6 string aspect that has managed to vocally captivate audiences. Her ability to lyrically story tell in language is colourfully texturized with her unique tone and vocal range leaving her listeners in awe.
