In fact, Afra Kane is not only a charismatic singer with a warm and flexible voice, but also a nimble-fingered pianist who successfully completed a classical degree. In her music Afra Kane draws from her Nigerian roots (Afro-Jazz-Vibes), but also incorporates elements of classical music. Afra Kane names Nina Simone, Aretha Franklin and Etta James as sources of inspiration for her extremely sensual singing.
