Anikiko has performed at the Peats Ridge Festival, Bondi Winter and Summer Festivals, International Harmony Film Festival, and is a regular at Sydney’s Zeta Bar, Opera Bar, and other local music venues.

Stunning.” words of praise from F. Merson of Limelight, who believes, as many do, Anikiko is set for a very promising future. She has thus far released two EP’s, Soul Naked Before You and Opening, as well as her 2010 album Fibonacci’s Steam, quickly making a name for herself as the next big thing on Australia’s alternative music scene.

Her music is inspired by many musical greats of many genres and eras, with a sound that is mellow yet edgy, uplifting yet calming, sexy yet coy."
