Bio
I did not start singing professionally before graduating from university. And after returning from New York in 2001 I sang backups for many, many different people. And I am highly grateful. Since each single job taught me something new, from Joy Denalane, Hattler, Della Miles, Katja Riemann to BANTU and Mo' Horizons. It is fun performing. But foremost it is about healing. I put out my first album CHANGES in 2006. So, it is definitely about time for something new. So, don't miss my second album HOME. It just came out on February 18th 2011 ... Looking forward to hearing from you. Chinaza
