Sankayi Jazz Series welcomes acclaimed South African jazz vocalist, composer and lyricist Mimi Mtshali for the launch of her latest album, Khaya Lami, on Friday, 16 October. Born in Boksburg, Ekurhuleni, Mimi began performing at a very young age, singing at church and growing up in a home where music was always present. She pursued her music education at UCT, completing her Jazz Performance Degree, and has shared stages with some of South Africa’s leading artists, including Sibongile Khumalo, Judith Sephuma, Jimmy Dludlu and Themba Mkhize, as well as international artists including Khadja Nin, Rita Marley, Joe McBride and Lauryn Hill. Mimi’s award-winning debut album, Essence Of My Soul, featured warm tunes, beautiful melodies and deep African and Latin influences. She has also released her second offering, Your Love, featuring collaborations with Kirk Whalum, Moreira Chonguica, Pamela Myburgh, Jankie Makopa and Afurakan. Her musical journey has included the UCT Philharmonic Orchestra, Tucan Tucan, Mamavox and the SAFRA Jazz Band, and she continues to be an active force on the South African music scene.
