It's hard to believe that this Nigerian native was discovered in the metro... Yet, it's true! A virtuoso guitarist, Keziah Jones was spotted in the early '90s while playing in the Paris metro. Strongly influenced by Prince's funk, he has been traveling worldwide for three decades, regularly delivering albums likened to eclectic postcards. From studios to festival stages, the Lagos native has continually refined his unique style. Born in 1968 in Lagos, Nigeria, after spending some time in the Constantine region of Algeria with his uncle, Keziah was sent by his father to England to pursue his studies. Thus, at the age of only 8 years, the young boy was separated from his family to attend a Public School in London. In the English capital, the Nigerian discovered his passion for music. He taught himself the piano at the age of 13, showing an innate talent in this field. Three years later, he decided to learn another instrument: the guitar. Gradually, he began composing his own texts and performing them. He created a new musical style, a mix of funk, blues, folk, and soul, which he named BluFunk.
