Hailing from Norway and Nigeria, Chika Dole tries to connect the dots between both cultures and the beauty that comes along from seeing the world from two angles.
Growing up in a household with music booming out of the stereo accompanied by her mothers singing, her interest in making music started at an early age. Chika nurtured it by learning to play the piano, writing her own songs and singing in different bands ranging from traditional jazz to ‘melodic metal’. This later resulted in her eclectic taste of music and her finding her love for neo-soul.
Her soundscape is minimalistic and Chika believes in the power of giving each component of her songs the room to make an impression on the listener. Lyrically she explores everything from close relations and small everyday moments to big social and political issues.
With musical inspirations like Katie Melua, Frank Ocean, Jhene Aiko, FKA Twigs, The Internet & NAO, Chika Dole is ready to make a mark for herself within Scandinavian Neo-Soul.
