Sekou

Between Leicester, where he was born, and London, where he hones his singing, Sekou develops a British soul-pop nourished by gospel, R&B and songwriting that is very voice-centred. First noticed as a teenager for cover versions shared on social media, Sekou turned that visibility into early gigs and then into appearances on festival stages like Glastonbury and as support for established artists. His music revolves around ballads and mid-tempos carried by a deep, expansive timbre, with arrangements that mix subtle funk touches, harmonies derived from gospel choirs and contemporary pop production. Positioned within the emerging British landscape, Sekou is cited by the BBC in their developing-artist selections and receives a BRIT Awards nomination, progressively affirming his place on the current soul-pop scene. The release of the EP "Out of Mind" in 2023 marks a first discographic step, while Sekou multiplies club shows, festival appearances and occasional collaborations with the fashion world, tracing a trajectory toward increasingly personal projects.
