okanomodé (pronounced uh-kahn-uh-mah-day) is the grandson of a pastor & protégé of afronauts, poets, sex therapists & porn stars. A musical, literary & visual shape-shifter, he ceaselessly re-defines genre, gender, spiritual & sexual expression with irrefutable funk & grace, conjuring Nina Simone, Grace Jones, Alvin Ailey, Bjork, & Funkadelic. He is the writer of luci’s lamb: a post-punk epic musical faerie tale re-imagining the relationship between Jesus & Lucifer as the ultimate star-crossed love story. Fusing gospel tinged soulful balladry, romanticism & lush arrangements, with spaced out sissy-funk, & digital sleaze, okanomodé is avant-groid cabaret at it's finest.
