For as pensive and reserved as Saffron Venti may be in everyday life, the Canadian based Nigerian singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist speaks her mind when she sings. Growing up in Nigeria, she played viola and joined jazz choir in high school and listened to everyone from J. Moss, Mary Mary, and Bebe & CeCe Winans to Marvin Gaye, Nina Simone, and T-Pain. Meanwhile, mom and dad played Culture, Bob Marley, and Nigerian highlife music. Recognising her sense of perfect pitch, she experimented with piano and guitar. she cultivated a soulful style of her own equally informed by that lifelong connection to harmony, eclectic resonances, and expressive intonation. She ultimately taps into a spirit agnostic of era yet connected to any age. Now, she expresses who she is through every note on a series of singles.
