Meklit (born Meklit Hadero) is an Ethiopian-born singer and songwriter based in San Francisco, California.

Born in Addis Ababa, she was raised in the U.S. and attended college at Yale, where she studied political science. Meklit sings in English and Amharic. She fled with her doctor parents to the US in hopes of escaping the years of violence that followed Ethiopia's 1974 revolution.
