about

2022 Marks a very important year for Kenyan Singer/Songwriter Akoth Jumadi. And as for every Musician, A debut Project invites the listeners into the larger soundscape of an Artist's capability to show their progress, vigilance and Presence.
'Yo Ni Ka' (The Way is Here)​ is a re-collection of stories ,poetry ,music and Time. Moments that define what is ,Now, And what is to come' says Akoth.
‌'It has been a long Wait of living yearning ,steady growth,and creating beautiful life experiences'.Says Akoth who has been touring a lot in Eastern Africa promoting her music and connecting with other creatives from all over the world. Everything seems to all add up now into how this new body of work was born.
Music In Africa describes Akoth as 'a new wave of young Kenyan Musicians making fresh sounds that are worth paying attention to'

The Album tackles issues of Healing,solitude, remembrance and re-call on Ancestral Identity, Collective Liberation and The New found Realization that The Destination is the Journey.
And That The Way ,is HERE!

For a new artist in the scene, Akoth is setting a standard very high that evidently surpasses most of her peers.
This is seen in the complexity of her writing, the arrangement of the music and crispness of delivery.
