Eric Wainaina is a singer and songwriter from Nairobi, Kenya. Wainaina attended Berklee College of Music in Boston where he graduated with an honours in music, majoring in songwriting and engineering.

He joined the music industry in the mid-1990s as a member of a male a capella band Five Alive. His song ‘Daima Kenya’ is widely considered Kenya’s second national anthem and was recorded while he was a student at Berklee.

He released his debut album ‘Sawa Sawa’ in 2001, which is still to tis day one of the highest selling solo albums in Kenya. The song 'Nchi ya Kitu Kidogo', meaning 'the land of petty corruption' in Swahili, made Wainaina even more popular with the Kenyan public. "People don't call me Eric any more, they call me Kitu Kidogo when I'm walking through the streets," he told the BBC in 2001.

The success of 'Sawa Sawa' was followed with the release of ‘Twende Twende’ (2006) and ‘Love and Protest’ (2011).
