GHANAIAN MUSIC OF ORIGIN- ARTISTES
Ghana's Paulina Oduro. Based in both London and Accra, Paulina and her band Bommbaya perform African Highlife music with their own unique and energetic African fusion influenced by Jazz.
Born in Sekondi (one of the most musical towns in Ghana which has traditionally produced some of the greatest highlife artists), Paulina's talent for music was recognised at an early age. At age seven she moved to Japan with her diplomat father and mother and her interest in music turned to classical piano, which she studied in Japan during her two-year stay.
Years later her silky smooth vocals, dynamic style and personality led many of Ghana's leading artists to record with her. As the former lead singer of the top Ghanaian High-Life band, Western Diamonds she took the sounds of High-Life and fused it with soul and funk to create a new sound that is tighter, faster and deeper.
