Album Notes In some ways the love child of Sade and Norah Jones, European sensation Ayo blends African pop and western soul influences into seductively mellow mood music. The daughter of a Nigerian father and a Romanian Gypsy mother born and raised in Germany, Ayo (whose name does mean "Joyful" in Yoruba) has a smoky voice and soulful delivery perfectly matched by the low simmer of jazzy arrangements built on African percussion, acoustic guitar, and old-fashioned funky organ grooves. Highlights include the passionate first single, "Down on My Knees."
Industry Reviews [A] set of reggae-infused, guitar-driven ballads....The German-born singer skillfully borrows sounds from around the globe.
