01About

"Great live music should enhance the moment without overpowering it."

Kris Bradley is a singer and acoustic guitarist with over 20 years of professional live performance experience, now based on Maui, Hawaiʻi. Her career has taken her from stages in Nashville — including The Bluebird Cafe — to The Key Club in Los Angeles and Webster Hall in New York, plus touring dates across the U.S. and Asia, including five-star Hyatt and Hilton properties in Bangkok and Malaysia. Her original music has also been licensed and featured on national TV shows including Married at First Sight, Jersey Shore Family Vacation, and Temptation Island.

Today she brings that same road-tested experience home to Maui, making music for the island's private parties, restaurants, bars, and resorts — blending soulful vocals with acoustic guitar and a thoughtfully chosen mix of original songs and familiar favorites.

It's the kind of sound that suits birthdays and backyard gatherings, wedding welcome parties, sunset cocktails, dinner service, happy hour, and long evenings by the water — every performance shaped to complement the space, the guests, and the natural rhythm of the room.
