Coconi

Summary
Having been compared musically to the highly energetic energy of No Doubt meets the rockier Evanescence with a pinch of Bjork in the vocals, it is no wonder Coconi has captured large audiences whilst performing alongside the likes of Natasha Bedingfield, PM Dawn and the legendary James Taylor Quartet, wowing audiences to her highly seductive tunes bursting with power. Coconi puts her ability to pen a catchy hook down to growing up listening to the crème de la crème of musical lyricists such as Alanis Morissette, Madonna and Sheryl Crow.
