Clara Kitongo hails from the beautiful pearl of Africa. Raised in singing in the choir, it is rumored that she sang her first songs at the tender age of three years old.

Her musical influences include the likes of India Arie, Asa, Alicia Keys and she enjoyed explorations in Reggae, Soul, and Afrobeats!

For Clara, music is way to connect both to her inner voice and personal mission but most importantly to others. She believes that music can heal us all and that even without understanding languages, music can create bonds that unite humanity.

Check out her singles "You Are" and "The Roots" on YouTube!
