ANCHR's Artist of the Day: Rina Mushonga

Born in India and raised in Zimbabwe, London-based artist Rina Mushonga has been grinding since 2014 to complete the release of her debut album "In a Galaxy." It was definitely worth the wait.

With a following in the Netherlands due to her college experience there, it seems like Mushonga is relatively unknown to music lovers and that's a shame. 

A true hallmark of a great album is when non-singles sound just as good, if not better, than planned singles. That's the case with Mushonga. The second song on her LP, "Good Vacation" is one of the most infectious songs I've heard in the last five years.

With only 42,000 streams on Spotify, it blows my mind that Mushonga has stayed under the radar. Especially when lead single "Atalanta," released in 2017, shows the multi-faceted talents of Mushonga. Dive into both songs below. Let's hope 2020 is year the music world wakes up to how talented Mushonga is.
