KONISA

About Me

Singer, writer, actress and model all rolled up in one. Multitalented and determined to make her mark, Konisa is a forced to be reckoned with. With music as her main focus, Konisa has went against tradition and developed a style of music all her own-“alternative soul”-which is soul songs influenced by the alternative rock genre. Her unique style and amazing songwriting abilities have led to many exciting opportunities in the music business. For example, in 2007, Konisa was the opening act for the legendary Boyz II Men. While earlier the same year, one of Konisa’s songs was featured on an episode of MTV’s “8th and Ocean”. 2008 has been a year of writing and learning. In addition to placing as a finalist in an International song writing competition, she has been steadily working on her 3rd self- released studio album due out in early 2009. Expect more great things from this up and coming artist in the near future. ..
