Premiere: Nia Ekanem – ‘It’s Your Love’

Well-crafted and emotionally engrossing soul music...

Nia Ekanem is a British-Nigerian artist with that rarest of qualities – soul.

That raspy voice feels entirely natural, wrapping itself around each word, each sinew of every song.

Nia will release his debut EP on March 31st, with Clash able to share lead single 'It's Your Love'.

Patiently pieced together, the sparse backing – just piano and guitar – has a feeling of exactness, as if everything is in its right place.

The Birmingham raised vocalist wrings out every inch of feeling from the vocal, a superb display of potent potential.

Tune in now.
