A Cilly Music Performance | Cill Soul | TEDxYouth@ValenciaCollegeIbadan

We believe the words of Plato that: "Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and charm and gaiety to life and to everything." Cill electrically numbed and charged the TEDxYouth@ValenciaCollegeIbadan audience with her cilly performance. She distributed wings to the audience to spread ideas. Born and raised in Benin City to a family of seven, Cill Soul is an alternative musician based in Lagos, Nigeria. She loves telling stories through music, and enjoys making music in the genre of soul, alternative rock, folk and country music with splashes of African sounds. She uses her music as a tool for social engineering, advocacy, and promotion of patriotism.
Her single, "Sound the Alarm", released in 2013 was inspired by her experiences while volunteering with an NGO monitoring election in Nigeria at the time. She believes in spreading quality music like wildfire knowing that someday good music will eventually chase bad music out of the Industry. She is gifted with a passionate voice that will take you on a journey through storytelling. She has shared the stage with various artistes like Olamide, Femi Leye, Isaac Gerald, Johnny Drille, Nana Aisha and so on. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
