Samona

Elegant, confident and beguiling, Samona is a multi-talented Contemporary Gospel vocalist and singer-songwriter born in Oakland Ca and raised in Sacramento Ca. Inspired by her relationship with God who has brought her through a plethora of adversities, the enigmatic singer-songwriter uses her music as a vehicle to express her perspectives and tell stories. Her overarching ambition is completely encapsulated in the title of her latest EP – “Encouraged To Inspire”. Though drawing influences from old-school artists like Mississippi Mass Choir, Daryl Coley, John P. Kee, and Kirk Whalum, as well as Opera and Classical music, Samona is anything but old school, as she epitomizes the daring borderless creativity of the innovating new wave of musicians.
