Dinachi

Dinachi is a London-based Nigerian singer and songwriter. She is exploring a nostalgic West African childhood experience through music, art, stories, whilst reconnecting with her identity in Christ through study, prayer and worship. Her latest release, WÚRÀ The Prologue is a retelling of Nigerian childhood classics such as Bàtà mi á dún ko ko kà, Akwukwo na-ato uto and Iya ni wura. She is remembering the songs of her heritage, treasures to pass on to the next generation. Dinachi's music is a blend of her varied influences, from folk and soul to the gospel music she grew up listening to.
