The word Inka means Home in Ekegusii (Bantu Tribe found in Kenya’s Nyanza Province). Inka’s style of Music is rather vast…some call it World music, some say it is Fusion. Inka’s sound is quite unique..more like a Cocktail! The Music has an array of influences including Jazz, Benga, Sebene, Kwaito as well as Neo-Soul.
