Born in Nairobi and hailing from the Nilotic tribes of Kenya, Adelaide-based Elsy Wameyo embraces her cultural heritage through her musical offerings. Her self-produced 2022 debut EP Nilotic was hailed as a game-changer and praised by The Guardian, Acclaim, NME, Fashion Journal, & Complex for its incisive lyrics and impressive production. The EP’s success propelled her on tours with Sampa the Great, Genesis Owusu, Tyler the Creator, among others. Elsy Wameyo has shared her new single “Sinner,” a blistering track that puts Wameyo’s virtuosic MC chops on full display. The song comes on the heels of a momentous 2023 for the rising artist, who supported Hilltop Hoods across UK and Europe, appeared at Falls Festival and Lost Paradise, and took home six awards at the South Australia Music Awards for Best Studio Engineer/Producer, Music Video, Song, Solo Artist & Release of the year for her debut EP Nilotic. She capped off the year with Triple J Unearthed’s Artist of the Year accolade.
