Bhi Bhiman is a Sri Lankan-American singer/songwriter born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri. Now living in the San Francisco Bay Area, the 27 year old has hit stages big and small, armed only with an acoustic guitar and his voice.
“With wry humor and an unvarnished sense of reality, Bhiman lends a dose of levity to whatever he’s singing about…Instead of the stick, Bhiman opts for the honey, convincing people with a laugh is much easier than coaxing them with guilt.” - Sound on the Sound
“With a tremulous, expressive voice backed by a well-handled folk guitar, Bhi Bhiman’s music is an interesting study in perspective and thoughtfulness, and somehow confounds expectations the audience might not have realized they had.” -My Crazy Music Blog
“His strikingly vibrant tenor octave resonates loud and powerful from any stage with as much recognition as his name.” - San Francisco Examiner
“It only makes good sense that the next great American folk hero/political voice is a very un-white, first-generation Sri-Lankan American. - Local IQ
“….did I mention Bhi sings like a traveling Dust Bowl folkie crossed with Nina Simone?” - Willamette Week
