Esoterica

Esoterica is a Lagos-based Nigerian indie artist known for her captivating blend of folk, soul, and afrobeats. Drawing inspiration from legends like Frank Ocean, Bon Iver, Lauryn Hill, Asa, Bill Withers, and Etta James, her music serves as a personal journal through which she explores her evolving relationship with herself and the divine. With a focus on embracing both pain and joy in equal parts, she invites listeners to navigate the complexities of life with an open heart, and find lasting transformation through sincere self reflection.

In addition to music, Esoterica is a talented writer and painter. She uses her artistic blessings to visually interpret her song lyrics into striking cover art, deeping the connection to her world. She sees her audience as a reflection of herself at the different stages of her life. And subsequently, the lonely child, the rebellious teen and the soul searching young woman can all feel seen and understood by her. Esoterica identifies with conscious, introspective women, offering them permission to be honest about their own experiences through her own brutal, yet profoundly liberating honesty.
