My Story

Born and raised in the heart of Lilongwe, Malawi, I discovered my passion for music at a young age. Growing up in a family that cherished gospel music, I was deeply influenced by the rich musical heritage of Malawi and the powerful messages of faith that gospel music carries.

My journey as a gospel artist began in the local churches of Lilongwe, where I first learned to use my voice as an instrument of worship and praise. The vibrant gospel community in Malawi nurtured my talent and helped me develop a unique sound that blends traditional Malawian musical elements with contemporary gospel arrangements.

After establishing myself in the Malawian gospel scene, I made the decision to relocate to South Africa to expand my musical horizons and reach a broader audience. South Africa's diverse music industry has provided me with incredible opportunities to collaborate with talented artists, producers, and musicians from across the continent.

As a music producer, I specialize in creating soul-stirring gospel tracks that resonate with listeners across different cultures and backgrounds. My production style incorporates elements of contemporary gospel, traditional African rhythms, and modern production techniques to create music that is both spiritually uplifting and musically innovative.
