ADANNAY

Description of image

Born and raised in South London, British-Caribbean singer-songwriter ADANNAY weaves stories of queer Black joy and resistance into bops that make you think, smile and dance. Playfully layering their roots in Caribbean folk and Gospel music with neo-soul vocals and an alt pop sound, ADANNAY’s songwriting is both nostalgic and fresh.

Following the release of their debut EP “Her Favourite Song” in 2018, ADANNAY was featured on BBC Introducing and performed at Cheltenham Jazz Festival, 110 Above and Cross The Tracks.

ADANNAY’s latest project reflects a period of self-exploration. Delving into their family history, the cultural legacies inherited from the Windrush generation, and the politics of being queer and Black in the UK today, ADANNAY’s new music asks how history shapes us and the ways we interact with the world.
