Beldina Odenyo/Heir of The Cursed – songwriter, sound designer, theatremaker.

(30 August 1990 – 5 November 2021)

Heir of The Cursed was a caulbearer born of an apparition, a primordial memory, a penny drop. She made songs influenced by the strange nuances of life, rooted in grief, Scottish weather, the constant and the inconstant.

Beldina Odenyo was a vocalist, guitarist, poet and writer creating work between the fields of music and theatre. Her work explores the differences and kinship between her dual Kenyan and Scottish heritage through words, music and visual art.
