HNY

HNY (pronounced “henny”) is a solo recording artist and performer originally from New England and now based in Seattle, WA. Her name— a monogram for “How And Why”, reflects both her curiosity and purpose as an artist and storyteller. A lifelong musician, HNY began playing violin at just four years old and recorded her first CD at age six, singing in church and touring the East Coast alongside her father, also a musician. She adopted the name HNY in 2020 while living in Walla Walla, WA, and released her debut single in 2021. Since then, HNY has made her mark on iconic stages including SOB’s in New York City, Los Globos in Los Angeles, and Barboza in Seattle. Her momentum continued with the release of her most popular single, “Little Things,” which introduced a wider audience to her genre-bending sound. HNY blends soul, R&B, rap and spoken word with her classical training and contemporary influences with raw storytelling and emotional depth. Through her passion, craft, and lived experience, HNY aims to inspire younger generations from all walks of life to pursue their dreams, embrace their truth, and step fully into their power.
