Sodi Cookey - Live at Bull theatre Barnet ( Small room)

Sodi Cookey spent much of his childhood growing up in the creative melting pot of Port Harcourt, Nigeria. Encouraged by his musical parents, Sodi started composing and performing from age six.

Heavily influenced from exposure to African and international musicality, Sodi honed his counter-tenor vocals into a unique blend of velvet, rich-raw melodies and provocative story-telling.

A storyteller and poet, his powerful original songs are a unique blend of Neo Blues Jazz, Soul and Highlife. Sodi Cookey has performed at London’s annual Jazz Festival, The Royal Festival hall and headlined at Vienna’s prestigious ORF RadioKulturHaus amongst other venues.

Today, Cookey pulls inspiration from his history and experiences - evoking passion, optimism and determination - a mix of sounds, rhythms and unique sequencing – all drawn from his jazz and soul musical influences and Nigerian heritage. His powerful and lyrical voice infuses afro-jazz and soul harmonies into contemporary rhythms and his diverse audiences are spellbound by his incredible range and charismatic performances.

Be prepared for an amazing musical journey that delights and surprises with the powerhouse that is Sodi Cookey.

Accompanied by Gio Dominici
