My name is Sachelah Ondeng'. (Pronounced Sahela) I am originally from Kenya, and grew up in Kenya, Swaziland, and South Africa. I am a musician who specializes in Songwriting, instrumental composition and arrangement, recording, and live performance. I have had extensive vocal and guitar training, including musical literacy and composition. (6 years) The music I write is a fusion of genres, often pop, indie, and soul, and sometimes including afro beats, soft rock, or reggae. I write soulful, lovey and sad songs, as well as upbeat dance jams. My hard skills include a mastery of rhythm and melody, rhyme and cohesion, detail orientation, adaptability, and efficiency. I have performed on various Kenyan stages, as a headline act, an opening act, and a background singer. The most notable stages I have graced in Nairobi are The Michael Joseph Center, and The Alchemist. In 2020 I composed background music for a documentary by The Intergovernmental Authority on Development. (IGAD) In 2023, I won a competition hosted by Mama's House, a project by the founders of Mama Rocks Restaurant, where I won a professionally shot musical video, and a performance tour of all their venues. --- **Employment and project experience** **Composer and Music Producer** Native Voice Studios _January 2020 - Present_
