“Her new album Safar confirms what we already knew: CHAII is a star." - Rolling Stone
“This multi-hyphenate talent has the world both in her music and at her fingertips.” - NZ Musician
Persian-Kiwi artist CHAII has conjured an entire creative universe through her work. Effortlessly switching guises as rapper, producer, sound engineer, and director, her kaleidoscopic output includes multiple EPs and last year’s acclaimed debut album, Safar, which features the club-ready snap of centrepiece single We Be Killing It.
Like the artist herself, CHAII’s music defies easy categorisation, fusing hip-hop, pop, R&B, electronica and Persian instrumentation in a sound that’s all her own. It’s no surprise, then, to see her music soundtracking eye-popping onscreen moments in the likes of the MCU’s Ms. Marvel and Netflix’s The Old Guard, while also blowing up stages IRL from New York to Brighton. This January, catch a boundary-breaking talent in her element at ACO On The Pier.
Patrons are advised that this event is predominantly standing room only.
