Muroki

Muroki grew up in Raglan, NZ and has gained a rep for his smooth-roots based pop sound inspired by his world of skating pavements and riding waves. The 21-year-old’s latest single Sweet Lime follows the release of Muroki’s sophomore EP Heading East in September 2022. The six track collection included the singles Simple Pleasures, Find Me and Introducing, a melting pot of Muroki’s musical influences with its nods to indie, pop, reggae and world music.

Muroki’s smooth, roots based sound mixes his Raglan background of skating pavements and surfing breaks with inspiration from local music, his Kenyan background and sounds from the streets of North and South America.

His breakout hit Wavy topped the NZ charts and the breezy soul-pop jam Surfin’ became a triple j playlist fave and was nominated by GQ as the single “..soundtrack of Summer.”

Muroki’s vocals catch your undivided attention, his voice a hypnotic instrument effortlessly caressing melodies to melt even the toughest of us. Release after release, Muroki continues to show us that he is someone you don’t want to be late on, and he is just getting started.
