Halima

Born in New Jersey & raised by her mother between Lagos and London, Halima Edozie-Akinlade draws from a tri-continental well. As an only child, she learned to blend introspective periods spent alone with the collaborative community programs she attended for theatre & music. As early as primary school, she remembers developing processes for bringing musicians together, continually from a place of creation. From early explorations of folk and piano to later studies of jazz & R&B, Halima's career has evolved, making pit stops in Pop-punk, neo-soul, and electronic along the way. Now, her sound pulls unapologetically from a broad musical spectrum, nodding sonically to those defining experiences pushing forward toward a more pointed exploration of self.
