Red Soil in My Eyes

With her silky soprano through four-plus octaves to a dulcet alto and spot-on phrasing evoking recollections of Lena Horne, Sarah Vaughan, Miriam Makeba, and other beloved divas, Somi has long since proven her mettle as an uncommonly gifted singer-songwriter and bandleader. From the sinuous, bossanova-inflected sing of "Ingele", to "African Lady", in which a message deploring domestic violence is delivered via percolating rythms from heyday of Nigerian Afro-beat & much more. Sung in English, Kinyarwanda (the language of Rwanda) and Swahili.
