Born in Nairobi, Kenya in the early 90’s, Ondara listened to the family’s battery-operated radio, devouring any sort of music he could cram into his young ears.

Eventually he came to folk music, after losing a bet, and finding out that ‘Knockin' On Heaven Door’ wasn't in fact a Guns N Roses Song, but by some guy called Bob Dylan.

He won the Green Card Lottery and moved to the States, not LA or New York … but Maple Grove, Minnesota - a place as American as Apple pie and more importantly, Dylan’s home state.
