Khanyi Mbau songs & Bio: Khanyi is a multi-talented South African singer-songwriter who blends her signature vocals and guitar to create an enthusiastic, vibey, and fascinating performance.
She made her national live performance debut in 2018 as the opening act for South African icon Jimmy Nevis. The couple went on to write, record, and release a track titled “Closure” together, which was played over 160 000 times and was included to radio stations’ playlists across the country.
Khanyi, who was born in Johannesburg, has been quietly shaping her sound since she was six years old, when her father recognized her affinity for singing nursery rhymes at the top of her lungs and put her in piano and vocal classes. She started penning her own songs and creating tunes to accompany her thoughts just two years later.
Most evenings after school were spent with her father, who would play some of the biggest superstars through their surround sound, from ABBA to Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston to Mariah Carey, Freshly Ground to Bob Marley, and to top it all off, Mafikizolo.
