Hi Everyone,

I wanted to let you know about my next LA gig at the Echo on May 11th. The flyer is below. If you are in the area please join us.

International Youth Cultural Conference
11.19.12

Zee Avi will be one of the speakers at the International Youth Cultural Conference (IYCC) to be held at the Sarawak Cultural Village (SCV) from 28 to 30 November 2012.

Yayasan Perpaduan Sarawak (YPS) has invited Zee to take on a different role to her public appearance because she can give youths a boost in pursuit of their dreams.

“I believe she is most suited to speak to youths on the topic of ‘Youth Aspirations’ because of the success she has achieved,” said Mark Noel Bonchol, Secretary to the YPS Board of Trustees.

Zee will speak on ‘Youth Aspirations’.

Fourteen countries will be represented at IYCC and the number of registered participants is expected to increase from the present 322.

Zee performs at Musical Extravaganza Amidst Lush Green Paradise
08.01.12

This year, 16 performers were invited to share their music at the festival, which was estimated to have attracted as many as 30,000 people.

One of the big names who performed at this year’s RWMF was Zee Avi, Malaysian singer-songwriter, guitarist and ukulele player who was born in Miri, Sarawak.
The songstress, who now lives in the United States, was first discovered from a song she had posted up on YouTube for a friend. She has since then released several albums and made a special appearance at the festival, courtesy of the Sarawak State Government. Aside from performing her hit songs, Zee Avi sang some local Sarawakian songs during the festival.
