Biography

I am an African singer-song writer based in Nairobi Kenya. I started singing in a Seventh-Day Adventist church as an adventurer ( very young), pathfinder and later in the Youth choir. When I joined high school I started going to National singing competitions and often went to the National level. From high school I joined the morning star singing group and sang gospel songs all over the Country. The first time I recorded professionally was with Baraton outreach choir at University of Eastern Africa Baraton where I'm soloing one of the songs.
Shortly after high school I went to the United Sta ... tes and continued to sing at churches and small kareoke bars. Unfortunately I got arrested and I ended up in Prison for 5 years. During this very difficult time, I composed over 600 original songs that I often performed to nearly 4,000 inmates and officers on a very regular basis. While in prison, I performed daily and joined a singing training group where I learned about singing posture, breathing and increasing my range.
I have been back in Kenya for two years. The first album that I recorded very cheaply produced very low quality music and was unable to sell. This year I have recorded 6 songs professionally and I'm still waiting for 5 which are currently being mixed at Barakiwa Studios in Nairobi Kenya
My goal is to set up a home studio where I can record myself on a daily basis and post. I currently do Karaoke in Nairobi at different clubs five nights a week for free. I''m hoping that I will soon get a paying gig with my talent and music

Experience

Lets be honest. I currently have no experience getting paid to sing. I however have been singing in church since I was young and yes I do sing everyday at Kareoke venues in Nairobi just because I love to sing so much. I would be very honored to get paid doing what I love to do the most which is sing and dance.
