May Kolta

About

May Kolta is a London-based pop musician inspired by classic hooks, electronic production and world music. Her sound is a marriage of nostalgic instrumentation and modern production techniques with catchy melodies, powerful bass lines, and entrancing piano textures. Evocative lyrics delve into difficult topics by romanticising her vulnerable personal experiences to connect to listeners. She draws from her heritage (South African, Egyptian and English), and her upbringing in Cape Town to inspire themes of warm, oceanic imagery.
