Rhoda Nkojo

A native of Uganda, Rhoda was raised in the Washington, D.C. area, where East and West African rhythms, pop, jazz, Broadway, R&B, and hip hop music imbued her childhood, creating a unique hybrid in her musical sensibilities. As a member of various choral groups, from school and church choirs to a female a cappella group while attending the University of Virginia, Rhoda's musical instruction includes five-part harmony and piano. Her talent emerges from deeply within, guided by a natural force of love and passion for all things creative. Over the recent years, she has performed with bands, ranging in genre from rock, pop, and R&B, and studied acting at the HB Studio in New York. Rhoda's theater work includes Cabaret (Understudy, Sally Bowles) and Once on This Island (Ti Moune) with the New York based Harmony Theater Company. Most recently, she was cast as a member of the gospel choir in the Sisters Geographic production entitled Waking Kya, which will be performed at various venues in and around New York. Currently, Rhoda can be seen performing in New York City with the pop/soul group Honey and she is writing and recording her first solo album in collaboration with premier saxophonist Kareem Walkes. Rhoda holds a J.D. from the George Washington University School of Law and is admitted to practice in New York and Washington, D.C.
