About Alewya
Alewya Demmisse, known artistically as Alewya, is a British singer-songwriter, producer, multidisciplinary artist, and model. Demmisse was born in Saudi Arabia to a Sudanese-raised Egyptian father and an Ethiopian mother. She was brought up in Sudan before her family relocated to the UK as refugees when she was five and then grew up in West London. She is heavily influenced by her African and Arab roots. Her name means "the highest" in Amharic. She released her debut single "Sweating" in mid-2020. The song was produced by UK and Ghana-based production duo Busy Twist and was mixed and mastered by Shy FX. The video accompanying the song includes some of her visual art and was directed by Jack Bowden. She later made a guest appearance in Little Simz's track "Where's My Lighter".
