Directly translated, Vuyina (shortened from Awuvuyina) means, “are you happy?” – an appropriate title for a curious mind who sings to inspire and awaken amidst the darkness of adolescence, adulting and adventuring the world. The powerhouse is still in high school, forging a musical path through the global music scene that few 17-year-olds have walked before. Catchy, carefree and magical to the core, Vuyina’s Journey EP will soon find its place in the playlists of today’s most influential and important audience – the born-free generation of our future.

With hearty, soaring vocals over an underbelly of hope, Vuyina seeks out truth and honesty in a cruel world in this – her debut EP Journey is, at its core, a solid reminder to her listeners that they’re not alone; a welcome departure from the superficiality of a generation of shallow pop. Tackling real-life issues like the pressures of living up to society’s ideals, self-doubt, friendship and identity, the prodigal singer-songwriter breathes life into a debut collection of self-aware, life-affirming nuggets - sure to take the airwaves by storm, unafraid.
