Bio

Born on the island of Saint Martin, Caribbean, Moana (real name, sorry Disney) grew up on a sailboat, performing alongside her musical parents.

After graduating from Berklee College of Music summa cum laude in 2011, she wrote her first solo, original album “dotted” which was crowdfunded via IndieGogo in 2013, and followed by an endorsement deal with Daisy Rock Guitars.

Some of Moana Avvenenti’s singing & songwriting credits include The Kardashians (Hulu,) Lucifer (Netflix,) Riverdale (The CW,) Love Is Blind (Netflix,) Got Talent Spain, Good Trouble (Hulu,) Siesta Key (MTV,) Lopez VS Lopez (NBC,) Disney Parks; advertisements for Domino’s Pizza, Renault, and the NFL’s Super Bowl; and video games such as The SIMS, Arknights, Reverse 1999, and Identity V.

Moana is based in Los Angeles, and she has performed in Abu Dhabi for the Formula One Grand Prix; in an artist residency at Shangri-La in Jakarta, Indonesia; on the cruise ship Celebrity Infinity in the Mediterranean region; as well as in several USA states and Caribbean islands; and she taught a semester in India at music college SAM.

Her multicultural influences as well as her work as a session singer gave Moana a chance to explore a myriad of musical genres and become versatile and proficient in many styles.
A powerhouse in epic/cinematic pop, she loves collaborating with film composers.

Her new album “battle” is a collection of big, powerful, dragon-inspired songs, where she incarnates her alterego Dragonita.
