BIO

Label: Independent

Official Websites: www.lizogumbo.com

With wide-ranging influences – from hip hop, to reggae, jazz, taraab, chakacha and blues – Liz Ogumbo realised very early on in her musical journey that it would be difficult to find a genre for her sound. At the core of her songwriting and performing is her Kenyan Soul, her KenSoul, and Liz’s KenSoul Experience descriptor perfectly captures Liz as she is today - her roots and culture, her contribution to music and fashion, and her passion for Africa.

​

KenSoul is the title of Liz’s first album, released to acclaim in 2010 - and is the reference point for her recently released follow-up, KenSoul, The Lotus Chapter. Traversing multiple influences and expressed in Luo, Swahili, English and French – Liz’s two albums reflect her genre-agnostic sound, her Kenyan soul and her life experiences. 

​

Her humorous writing and skilled storytelling, combined with her smoky, sultry vocal abilities place Liz as one of Africa’s most notable artists, with KenSoul, The Lotus Chapter delivering a new set of songs that are as inventive as they are memorable. The 12-track album builds on the strong foundation laid by KenSoul – a record that signalled just how wide-ranging Liz’s creative gifts are, and how genre-agnostic her sound is.
