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 capella 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 has shared the the stage with Gavin DeGraw and the late, great Blues Legend Moe Holmes. Currently,
Rhoda can be seen performing her original music as well as performing with Funk Band Loose Booty in New York City. Her self-titled second release, produced by Kareem "Lil Maceo" Walkes, is available on I-Tunes, CD Baby and Digstation. RHODA is a rich collection of soulful grooves with powerful vocals and deeply emotive lyrical content. RHODA, co-written by Rhoda and Kareem A. Walkes, received a 2010 Independent Music Award nomination for best R&B album.
