SPECIAL GUEST APPEAREANCE FOR CHARITY CONCERT !!



"If there were singers, there were singers. Juwita Suwito is more than a singer, songwriter and overall superstar to many.. she's also a friend. Thanks for never forgetting us Juwita! Your fan, stan. I mean JFK"
- JFK (Hitz.FM)

"She is a versatile singer.. not just a singer but a singer songwriter. With all of her talents and passion for this art she remains down to earth and great to work with!" - Vanessa Chong (model/talent & runner-up of The Amazing Race Asia Season 2)

"Juwita is one of those rare musicians that makes cheap microphones sound like expensive microphones." - Greg Henderson (ARIA & AIM award-winning producer & sound engineer)

"Don't be fooled by Juwita's petiteness and shy mannerism - this lady kicks ass on stage, behind the stage, at the studio, outside the studio - basically in everything she does!" - Daphne Iking (model, TV personality & actress)

"I want me some Juwita. An ultimate professional with a silky voice, and producing some really delicious music." - Ahmad Izham Omar (CEO, 8TV)

“She is simply inspiring, firm in her principles and sets high standards, yet is appreciative of her collaborators.” - Leo Selvaraj (budding composer, songwriter, musician & theatre artiste)

"My brother & I have known Juwita since primary school days. All this time, she's always been genuinely REAL. No superficial fake fronting with this darling. Exudes sincerity & substance in living her life, both personally & professionally. Her brilliance speaks for itself.
Working with her is a pleasure as she's efficient, creative & instantly puts everyone at ease.
Beautful voice, Beautiful person."
- Dr Farrah-Hani Imran (reconstructive surgeon and former national gymnast)

Juwita's Journey

In 2005, Juwita’s debut solo album, ‘Brand New World’ was declared Best Local English Album at the prestigious AIM (Malaysian Music Industry) Awards. She was also nominated for Best Female Vocal Performance in an Album the same year. These were only 2 of the 4 nominations she and her album received at AIM12.

Juwita's journey in the professional music scene began in her late teens as a backing vocalist for leading Malaysian artistes at gigs, mega concerts and prominent award shows. It was during this time that she developed her personal versatility and was often called upon to record song demos for East Asian publishing houses. In fact, it was demos such as these which were eventually released and unexpectedly caught the attention of many a curious listener. One example is her rendition of “Breathe Again”, published by Warner Music Taiwan in a Soundtrack for Mandarin TV drama series ‘The Outsiders’.

In July 2003, while representing Malaysia at the YWCA World Council & International Women’s Summit in Brisbane, Australia, Juwita performed a song she wrote based on the theme, ‘Leading Change’. It expressed her passion to encourage especially youth to use their unique God-given capabilities to make a difference in society. This received an enthusiastic response from the audience of approximately 1,000 women from over 100 countries.

In 2004, Juwita was entrusted with the task of coaching the finalists of the inaugural 'Malaysian Idol', and continued to do so for the second season. In the following years, she guest coached on reality shows 'One in a Million' and 'Mentor'. She was also enlisted on the LG MyStarz mentoring team consisting of Malaysia's top musicians.

Since the release of her debut solo album, Juwita has performed at numerous events, youth rallies and concerts in Peninsular & East Malaysia and Singapore. In November 2005, she had her first Australian Mini Tour during which she performed and presented an 'Angel' award at the National Gospel Music Awards in Canberra. Her second Australian Mini Tour in July 2006 was with the first Malaysian Idol Jaclyn Victor. Together they performed at Paradise Community Church in Adelaide, Australia for Christ Fellowship in Melbourne and at the Mt.Buller Ski Resort. June 2007 found Juwita at the Asia Pacific Youth Alive Conference in Jakarta, Indonesia with the Malaysian team that led a stadium-full of 5,500 young people in worship. In July 2007, she performed once again at the International Women's Summit, this time held in Nairobi, Kenya.
