Moonchild Sanelly is going from strength to strength. The South African singer started out as a fashion student, and her signature mop of blue hair has helped get her noticed at home and internationally. But it’s also her energy and her feisty championing of female freedom that gives her music an edge.

She has collaborated with South African names including Maphorisa, Sho Madjozi and Thandiswa Mazwai, as well as global stars Beyonce and Gorillaz. This year she has released Big Man with British artist Self-Esteem, as well as two new songs of her own, Scrambled Eggs and Big Booty.

She’s also been touring Europe, and wowing crowds at festivals including Womad and Glastonbury in the UK, where she appeared no less than nine times!
