CULTURE SHOCK 2021: Q&A With Okay Kaya
Headlining this year’s virtual Culture Shock Music Festival is Norwegian-American singer-songwriter Okay Kaya! We got the chance to ask her some questions before her set premieres this Saturday.
Who are 3 artists that inspire your music writing process?
Hard to pick just three, for this concert I covered songs by Blaze Foley and Leo Sayer. I’m usually inspired by what I’m reading, these days poems by Claudia Rankine and Fernando Pessoa.
How does your identity as a Norwegian-American influence your musical style/music in general?
I think identity influences many parts of one’s life. I’m a bit of a sponge and my mother has a big record collection which has left me hungry and playful with my own musical stylings.
