Novanika

Novanika is an underground Lagos-based collective that bridges Afro‑rooted rhythms with textured alternative guitars, shoegaze haze, and emotionally charged vocal performances. Led by frontman KiddHillz, the band crafts an immersive sound that defies genre and borders.
Since forming, Novanika has built an organic reputation through gritty live performances in intimate Lagos venues, from street‑side sets to warehouse shows, drawing attention for their raw energy and emotionally immersive delivery. Though not formally released, early singles like Saviour have amassed over 4,000,000 streams, showcasing the resonance and reach of their sound without a label or promotional push.
Managed independently, Novanika is now preparing to expand beyond Nigerian underground circuits. They are seeking international showcases, sync placements, and collaborations with indie labels and global festivals looking for bold, pioneering artists who blend culture, distortion, and soul.

Novanika isn’t just a band, they’re an emergent movement. Their Afro‑Fusion meets post‑punk ethos speaks to audiences craving spiritual depth through distortion, and they’re poised to bring that energy to African stages and beyond.
