Niki Kennedy

Born and raised in Aotearoa New Zealand, Niki Kennedy is an award-winning Pasifika singer-songwriter and musician. Grounded in roots and soul, she blends warm grooves and emotional melodies into honest storytelling with heart. Her debut album, The Space In Between, explores themes of home, identity, and belonging. It’s a journey of reconnection through culture, nature, and story, integrating Polynesian elements into contemporary roots music. Hitting #1 on the iTunes Canada Singer-Songwriter chart, it features Revolution, which earned Niki her first #1 on the Indigenous Music Countdown, Through the Night , I Don't Think About You, Gardenias, and release-day single, Meant To Be. Through music, she shares openly, hoping listeners feel seen, heard, and held. Each note is a quiet invitation to meet ourselves and one another gently, in pursuit of a kinder world for all.
