PROFILE

"I sang before I could talk"

Thandy grew up in a home filled with music; her grandmother's (Gogo) singing, church, and the radio was always on. She would twirl and dance in their kitchen in Gwabalanda, Bulawayo dreaming of being the hero in the folktales she heard from her beloved Gogo. The richness of stories and music inspired her. She fell in love with the stage and singing became her life.

From the school choir to Inganekwane

Music, dance and theatre catapulted her out of her township, landing her on stages across Zimbabwe, Russia, Canada and Austria. Thandy’s exploration of music deepened and she amassed valuable lessons from mentors and friends along the way, enriching her work. Drawing from her childhood, she began to tell stories in her music; a Single Ngeke, an EP Ongaziwayo and her latest album Inganekwane.
