IDA fLO, a first generation Senegalese-Brit born in Mexico, and raised in San Francisco, is well recognized as one of the highest performing vocalist/songwriters in House Music today. Named after her grandmothers, Ida {EE-dah} and Florence, IDA fLO also inherited their entrepreneurial, resilient, and joyful spirits. James Brown, Michael Jackson, Erykah Badu, Youssou N’Dour, Lauryn Hill, and Bob Marley were ever present voices that influenced IDA’s unique vocal sound, and the inclusive love and spirit of House pulled her into the genre. What started as a spontaneous recording session in London in 2015, turned into her first release on Glasgow Underground Records w/ CASSIMM, launching IDA fLO into the world and work of a singer-songwriter. Growing up in the USA, IDA fLO witnessed her immigrant parents demonstrate courage as they traveled the road of life through the vehicle of their art. She recalls sitting beside her father as he put brush to canvas, creating visual portals into the stories and legends of his Senegalese ancestors. Her mother worked with paint too, from pottery to screen printing fabric and garments. This and IDA fLO’s affinity for the performing arts inspired her to study voice, piano, and dance.
