Hailing from North West London, the beautiful & stylish Basheba brings us a unique, combination of drum & bass, blues, R&B and gospel. Basheba has been perfecting her vocal style since a young age, so it’s no wonder that the likes of Rudimental & Lyracis asked to work with her. Although Basheba was born and raised in London by her British Dad and Bajan Mum, Basheba says she is 'inspired' by her Bajan roots and believes her love of music stems from the passion the people of Barbados have for music. Spending every school holiday in Barbados she feels she is as much British as she is Bajan. She is now finishing her debut EP with producer Dean Barratt (who Shy FX calls the “super duper engineer”), due for release in mid 2014. Basheba creates an evocative narrative in her music. She says, "A song is nothing without a story. I’m a storyteller, I just tell my stories through song." This storytelling inspired the artistic photographer Linda Blacker to work closely with Basheba to create images that have grabbed the attention of both music & fashion press alike.
