Koebi Faumui at Smith's Alternative

Koebi is a singer/songwriter and music producer, based in Canberra. Being born into a family of musicians allowed him to experiment with various instruments and sounds and began writing, producing and recording at the age of 8. Over the past decade, he’s performed with his two older siblings Kashia and Salale as The Faumuis and they've recorded and produced 10 original and 5 cover albums in that time. In 2020 Koebi embarked on his solo career and released his debut single during the Covid period, "I Feel Like Shit" is a song about how he felt during the lockdown period. Whilst it was important to stay positive during that time he wanted to acknowledge that the experience was difficult and challenging for many people, including himself. His most recent work has been a collaboration with the Year 4 Indigenous students from the Biri Gunanggu Program. The track “Wassup My Mob” was written, produced and recorded over a four month period and was released at the end of 2021. “You don’t know me” is Koebi’s second release this year following “Good People.” The launch will be at Smith’s Alternative on Sat the 1st of October starting at 6pm. Koebi will be performing with a full band of some of Canberra’s finest musicians and other Canberra artists. Entry Cost All tickets $20
