UMI is a 20-year-old Seattle native pioneering a new sound rooted in R&B and alternative neo-soul – she calls it Bedroom R&B. Her artistry manifests itself through her honest lyrics, sultry melodies, and quirky perspective which gives listeners a personal connection to UMI and her music. The laid-back energy of her lo-fi sound is a reflection of her personality – unique and nostalgic. Currently living in Los Angeles, UMI continues to create genre-bending music that captivates and inspires listeners. “I hope that the relatability of my lyrics can be comforting to people who realize their worries and problems are universal. I want them to know that they’re not alone.”
