Mica Sefia is from Liverpool. She is a 23 year old contemporary soul singer who combines the simplicity of melodic structure and heavy rock influences to create an atmospheric full sound, usually powered by her 6 piece band to give full impact of sound and emotion. Mica finds that the more empowering songs from the likes of Brittany Howard from Alabama Shakes, Ayoni & Olivia Dean are the most moving to her in their layered and precise sound. Her own taste in music extends to Neo-soul and Alt-Rock. Mica has performed at Sofar Leeds, London and Nottingham, and has headlined sold out shows at The Hi Fi, The Wardrobe; and festivals including Live At Leeds Festival, Tramlines, We Out Here Festival, Harrogate International Festival etc. she has also supported artists Secret Night Gang, Gotts Street Park, B-ahwe and Corinne Bailey-Rae

Mica recently was interviewed by Christian Carlisle on BBC Leeds & Sheffield - BBC Sounds about her recent single ‘Walking Wonder’ released in June. Mica says:
The track is about my experiences as a black woman and the struggle it can be sometimes listening to the stereotypes you are supposed to carry influenced by the media. Walking Wonder is supposed to feel like a conversation often had with those that are uneducated and the doubt that can bring out in self reflection. It’s an honest explanation of how i’ve often felt in my life being the only black person in a room and only having myself to speak to.A key influence of this track is Eyoni’s “Unmoved” (A Black Woman’s Truth).”
