Onome’s Offerings on Outschool
January 19, 2020.
Thanks to all of you who subscribed to my YouTube page! Here is a recently uploaded video of one of my last performances of the year, ironically in January. I led a sing-along of “Sing Through My Voice” by the Beautiful Chorus, a zipper song I created called “Rise, Rise,” and the South African folk anthem “Shosholoza.”

4. Soul Incites: Self-Development Book Club Discussion
Thursday, August 13
8pm ET
Our August selection is You Can Heal Your Life by Louise Hay. I’m hosting a live discussion in my Facebook group, Soul Incites: Self-Development Book Club. We’re discussing Parts I and II. The recording will be posted in the private Facebook group so join today if you are a woman who loves books and personal development. Guys, spread the word to the women you love!
The purpose of Soul Incites: Self-development Book Club (SDBC) is to bring my extensive background as a teacher and workshop facilitator to the online sphere by providing a space where women can witness and support each other in our growth journeys by harnessing the wisdom of personal development texts. We are covering a diverse range of topics such as mindset transformation, energy work, money, relationships, clearing trauma, creating breakthroughs, specific self-development techniques and healing modalities, spiritual and metaphysical approaches to personal development, and more.
Who is Onome?
Onome is a vocalist, facilitator and interdisciplinary artist of Urhobo heritage in the Niger Delta. She incorporates improvisation into her practice as a tool to expand consciousness, creativity, and personal development. Through her audience-interactive performances, workshops and sound installations, Onome embodies joy, enchantment, and infinite possibility. She is a partner artist at Carnegie Hall as a core member of the vocal improvisation ensemble, Moving Star.
She has performed sound poetry at hundreds of venues nationally, recorded soundscapes for podcasts, and created vocal film scores. She received her MFA in Performance Studies at Pratt Institute. She is the artistic director for Lush Tongue, a vocal improvisation project where sound, creativity, self-discovery, connection, and joy converge through singing—via sound healing sessions, workshops, vocal coaching, retreats, and concerts. She leads Soul Incites, a women’s self-development book club. She got her start in spoken word poetry and opera via Nuyorican Poets Cafe and New York University, and now facilitates community vocal immersions at concert halls, conferences, galleries, museums, schools, cultural centers, shelters, prisons, parks, churches, wherever voices gather.
