About the Artist

Namira is a Korean American musician reviving classic songs in modern dance music.

Rooted in pop EDM of the 2010’s, her sound incorporates elements of indie, rock, hip-hop, reggaeton, and folk music from around the world in innovative ways. Drawing on her background as a classical-pianist-turned-DJ, Namira is not afraid to experiment with popular dance music as an art form while celebrating the underground roots of EDM as a safe space to find joy. 

Born and raised in New England, Namira was recognized as a music prodigy when she won an international piano competition and performed in the prize ceremony at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. She took a detour from music to pursue her education, graduating from Phillips Academy Andover and receiving a degree in literature from Stanford University. 

Namira spent her twenties working in the consulting and tech industry, living in Dubai, Mauritius, New York City, and Seoul. Frustrated by the lack of new music catering to modern professional women, Namira began writing the songs she wanted to hear on the radio and dance floor. She was selected for the 2024 ADE x shesaid.so program to increase female representation in EDM. At the end of 2024, Namira founded the indie music label Stereo Embassy as a platform to host events and nurture fellow artists. She currently resides in Los Angeles, California.
