Celtic Soul, Nigerian Sass: Presenting Laura Izibor

Laura Elizabeth Arabosa Izibor better known as Laura Izibor is blossoming into Ireland’s Princess of Soul. Laura was born and raised in Ireland with a Nigerian father and Irish Mother. Unfortunately, her parents split-up while she was still young and her dad did not play a major part in her upbringing. That coupled with the bigotry that she faced while growing up in an all-white council estate seem like the formula for a tragic tale but instead, Laura used these to propel her to success. With inspiration from legends including Nina Simone, Laura has crafted a unique sound that is now bringing her success. Have a listen to some of Laura’s songs below and look out for her debut album ‘Let The Truth Be Told‘ which will be out in May.
