Kenya & Nemor

Band,
Hip-Hop/Rap and R&B/Soul
A.k.a. Kenya Emil; Jay Nemor

A smooth and sensuous sound of their own influenced by the likes of Marvin Gaye, Earth Wind & Fire, Atlantic Starr, Sade Jill Scott and Maxwell just to name a few and you have Kenya and Nemor. If the midnight sun had a voice, it would touch that inner chord that transforms simple tones into something so much greater. That is the vocal caliber of Icelandic-American Kenya Emil, lead singer of the duet Kenya and Nemor, who are gearing up to bring their music to audiences all over the world. Behind Kenya shines a radiant Southern moon that shrouds her softly sung melody with the perfect texture to make the sensation complete. It is Jay Nemor, a Texan songwriter deeply connected to the very roots of soul music. When they perform, the audience asks itself: "Why don't they make music like that anymore?" Well, they do and it manifests itself in this duo.
