Amadanyo is a prolific songwriter, composer, and music arranger. He is a versatile, soulful, and enchanting singer of Afro-Pop (contemporary pop music with an Afro-Hip-Hop flavor) as well as Nembe chants - songs sung in his native tongue. Amadanyo's music is a brilliant fusion of Afro-Pop, ambient instrumentation, with traditional African vocals and rhythms geared toward appealing to a global audience. Amadanyo is also an energetic, creative dancer and showman. Like his greatest inspirer, Mr. Harry Belafonte, Amadanyo not only sings and dances, but likes to combine a theatrical element to his music. Therefore, he creates exquisite stage adaptations from the lyrics of his songs from his music. Amadanyo's CD (http://cdbaby.com/cd/amadanyo) "Voices From the Mangrove," was inspired by his life experiences, cultural stories, and upbringing in the Niger Delta Region of Southern Nigeria. Proceeds from the sales his CD will be used towards revitalizing the Mangrove Forest and the culture of his Nembe people (http://amadanyo.com/vision.html)
