About Isaiah Kaleo

Isaiah Kaleo is an emerging Hip-Hop/R&B artist whose recorded work aligns with Spotify’s “dark r&b” tag, drawing a following of roughly 20K listeners. In New York City, he has brought that material to stages like the Mercury Lounge, placing his voice and phrasing at the center of the set. He has shared bills with Alan Vuong, including performances tied to Vuong’s event listings. Kaleo’s live approach favors mood and precision over spectacle, letting restraint do much of the work.
