When you have a mother who is into the nitty gritty of music, including being a singer and owning a music studio, music will naturally be for you an everyday thing.
Ekene Silver Momah whose stage name is Silver Omah was born into music and has remained immersed in it ever since.
The young songstress was indeed greatly impacted by her mother who is a singer and a studio owner. Opting for music as a course and graduating from the Department of Music, Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, further enhanced Omah’s passion for music.
As an undergraduate, Omah was actively involved in musical shows and musical collaborations.
Notedly, during her undergraduate days, she joined a music band named “Ichoku” led by Gerald Eze whose main focus was on exploring Folk Music and adapting popular songs to the Igbo traditional instruments such as the Uboaka and Oja.
In 2021, Omah met Kaycee Oguejiofor while attending a music seminar hosted by himself and Gerald Eze where they educated musicians and music lovers about the music industry.
Oguejiofor took a liking to Omah’s sound and decided to sponsor her recordings which aided her career growth thus the young female music star started recording her music professionally in 2021.
A singer, songwriter, and composer, a turning point in Omah’s fledgling music career, however, came in August 2023, “when I met Arch. Tobenna Ezeofor (Zeofest), the manager of Zeof Records also took a liking to my sound and introduced me to the CEO, High Chief Jideofor Ezeofor of Zeof Records.”
“He too fell in love with my sound and had me record two songs, one of which I released on February 9th, 2024 as my first single named “Price Of Your Heart” in collaboration with Zeof Records”
Omah’s musical career got a huge boost recently when she featured in an EP, “Epiphany“. The EP which was released by Zeof Records, is a selection of different Afrobeat genres.
