Announcing one of our favorite up-and-coming artists KinAhau is bringing his Charlotte debut to The Yard on Saturday, April 11th.  Disguised as a trash collector, eighteen-year-old KinAhau ran up behind Michael Bibi with a letter and a USB—music that, within days, echoed across every major festival and led to their collaboration on “Different Side.” At the time, KinAhau was almost completely unknown in the electronic music scene, yet the sudden momentum around the track pushed him into view, amassing millions of streams and leading to early shows at DC-10, Fabric London, Space Miami, and Mayan Warrior in Istanbul and Mexico. On those stages, he shared lineups with figures like Luciano, Damian Lazarus, and Dennis Cruz—artists who had long defined corners of the underground he was only just stepping into. But KinAhau’s trajectory has never been the point: his work has grown beyond the novelty of profane club culture into something more honest, introspective, and confessional, refusing to settle neatly into genre or function and instead becoming a mirror for the world around it. KinAhau’s music is less a sound than a reflection of youth coming of age in shared online spheres, and no longer an outsider looking in, he now stands fully embodied within the mythology he has built.
