About Me

Emerging into the spotlight from East Palo Alto, CA the songstress quickly began to make her mark. At just two years old, Folami was often found mimicking the lead singer on the microphone during her father’s band rehearsals. During her high school years, Folami began to sing backup for local Bay Area acts in various jazz night clubs. Eventually, Folami trained her voice through humming, singing tones and vocal interpretations. She continued formal training at Howard University where she received her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Musical Theatre.
Spawned from a musical heritage that involves traditional African influence as well as early American jazz and blues, Folami is definitely not your typical R&B type. Folami remixes the music of yesterday while creating her own new style in the world of music today. Her music combines the zest of loud trumpets, caress of soft strings, a splash of that astounding 808 and the hypnotizing hum of her melodic soprano. Much of her song’s lyrical content are real passionate, heartfelt emotions penned by creating a therapeutic experience for her listeners and herself.
