About the Artist
Anuhea (pronounced Ah-New-Hey-Ah) is a self-taught guitarist and song-writer born on the Hawaiian island of Maui. An eco-conscious surfer as well as an outdoor enthusiast, Anuhea is not just another pretty face. She is a savvy entrepreneur who acted as her own manager, agent, producer and distributor before signing with OneHawaii Music. Anuhea's songs weave soul, R & B, jazz, and reggae with smart, personal lyricism on her self-titled debut release. She began showcasing her talents as a teen, "I was discovering my talent and passion while realizing how to deal with emotions every teenager goes through." Anuhea shares the same independent attitude of celebrated females like Gwen Stefani, Lily Allen, and India.Arie. "My main goal as a music-maker is to inspire people to find their dream, whatever it may be," she says. "I just feel lucky that I've found my dream and am able to pursue it."
Product Description
Anuhea's signature guitar rhythms and song writing weave soul, R&B, jazz, and reggae to achieve a seductive pop sound with an independent attitude ala Lily Allen and Gwen Stephanie.

This CD is truly awesome, and I mean that in every way. Sultry, soulful, smart and sassy lyrics and a smooth, island inspired sound. Anuhea is kind of like a female Jack Johnson.
From Maui, she is beautiful and her music should be described as delicious, really really delicious. I have have been playing this CD over and over and it just gets better. For me this is a top contender for best new album / best artist of 2009. In these crazy times, Anuhea's music is the answer for a complete escape to audio paradise!

There are two types of people putting out albums today, singers and artists.
Singers are those that lack the ability to write lyrics, music, can't play an instrument, or have their voice "processed" by computers. But they have an image that is marketable (good looks & some suggestive moves).
Artists are on a completely different level, they create. They may do one or two things listed above, but there are a few that can do all of them. The really amazing gift is to be able to do them all.
If you're looking for the latter, there is a breath of fresh Hawaiian air blowing in that you haven't experienced even if you've vacationed there. That is Anuhea.
With her debut album Anuhea proves that local talent doesn't have to stay out on an island were only the locals can enjoy her creations. This is clearly a multi-hit album like very few artists, (just a few come to mind, Madonna, Janet & Michael Jackson, Billy Joel, Whitney Houston, etc) can create.
I know that may seem to be a crazy comparison at this point, but if the radio program managers across this Nation are really honest and listen to this album I can't see why it won't happen.

It used to be that pop music had depth and integrity and R&B was filled with the soul music that formed its roots. Unfortunately now most of pop and R&B music is filled with pabulum about cars, jewelry, and bottle service. Anuhea's debut release brings us back to a time when pop music was about true emotion and attitude. Without the hipster burden of the indie music label or any type of neo-soul affiliation, Anuhea is just pure talent with great songs with which anyone of any age can identify whether it be through current circumstances or through the eyes of reminiscence.

She has a sexy, cool voice. Like a hip/hop/reggae Colbie Callait. Def worth the money. Prefect for relaxing to. Favorite songs are Big Deal and Just Want You Around

Nice Surprise
I picked up this album during a recent fund-raising project with a local NPR station. Usually this is a donation and the CD is not anything I'm interested in. Read more
