About
My name is Chris Obehi, I’m 23 and I am a Nigerian artist who lives in Italy since 5 years. I am a
multi-instrumentalist: when I was in Nigeria, I learnt how to play bass guitar, piano, drums and
percussions. It was just when I came to Italy that I taught myself to play the guitar, I started
singing and composing my own songs. Thanks to Francesco Riotta, singer and bandleader of
“Famiglia del Sud”, I discover the music of Rosa Balistreri, a Sicilian traditional folk singer and I
start making cover of her songs. Singing her songs make me feel the emotion of Sicily, an island
that has become my second home. Due to a video made by Palermo Festival (on you tube:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWvwMhApKv4) I became well known in Sicily and beyond
for my Rosa Balistreri cover and thanks to this I met my producer Fabio Rizzo of the label 800A
Record. On 30th March 2020 I released my first album Obehi. My songs are mostly inspired by me Show less
