The music of Nigeria includes many kinds of folk and popular music, styles of folk music are related to the multitudes of ethnic groups in the country, each with their own techniques, instruments, and songs. Little is known about the country's music history prior to European contact, although bronze carvings dating back to the 16th and 17th centuries have been found depicting musicians and their instruments. The largest ethnic groups are the Igbo, Hausa and Yoruba. Traditional music from Nigeria and throughout Africa is almost always functional; in other words, it is performed to mark a ritual such as a wedding or funeral and not to achieve artistic goals. Although some Nigerians, especially children and the elderly, play instruments for their own amusement, solo performance is otherwise rare. Music is closely linked to agriculture, and there are restrictions on, for example, which instruments can be played during different parts of the growing season.

Eddaland administratively designated by Nigeria as Afikpo South covers an entire local government area in Ebonyi State, Nigeria. It is the homeland of a culturally distinct people known as Eddics who are often misconstrued to be a sub-class of the dominant Igbo ethnic group of South East Nigeria. Eddic call their place Eddaland or just Edda. Outside Africa, Edda is more popularly associated with Icelandic Viking folklores and ancient Nordic mythology where Edda is considered a lost civilization. While there is today no clearly established historical correlation of Eddaland also called Edda and the Eddish people enfolded in what is now Nigeria to Nordic ancestry; elements of some ancient Nordic Viking religious mythology written of in the 13 century CE Icelandic Poetic Edda where the name Edda first appeared are still starkly present in traditional pagan religious culture of the Eddish people in Eddaland in today’s Ebonyi State, Nigeria. Eddics were relatively culturally and linguistically distinct, but today their old language has gone extinct, and they speak a language is essentially a dialectal form of Igbo, with borrowed words from Efik and with spoken a very distinctive accent from both languages.
