Ayo calls herself an African Gypsy. Born to a Nigerian father and Romanian Gypsy mother, Ayo’s music is a mix of cultural heritage; soul, folk, afro beat and reggae music.
Her album “Joyful”, has reached platinum status in France and her popularity has been spreading throughout Europe like wild fire. A lovelorn song, her first single released is called “Down On My Knees” and the second called “Only You” which is a sweet ode to her son.
In a world of of over synthesized music and complicated beats, listening to her raw, world-beat is refreshing.
