Onome is a writer, vocalist, and performance artist whose work has been published in numerous anthologies. At sixteen, she started riveting audiences nationwide with her spoken word poetry. Since then, her focus has expanded to singing and songwriting. She contributes her vocals to film scores, live collaborations and albums. Onome's richly textured contralto draws comparisons to Sade, Nina Simone and Cassandra Wilson, yet her lush harmonics, lyrical inventiveness and genre-transcending style put her in a class of her own. Her work focuses on unconventional beauty in unexpected places and the internal landscape of the soul. Listen. |
