An experimental and self taught singer and songwriter originally hailing from South East London, Andreya Triana grew up submerged in a multicultural atmosphere. A unique vocalist, Andreya began singing at the tender age of 7, taking influence from the sights and sounds of inner city London. Her early love and passion for music would see her locked in her bedroom for hours on end writing poetry, making homemade mix tapes and recording tracks - utilising two battered cassette decks to record harmonies. Her early love of improvisation would warp and change over the years, hugely influencing her 'Freeflo Sessions' - a hypnotic one woman show using a sampler to loop vocals, percussive sounds and beats live. To date she has taken her Freeflo Sessions worldwide, dazzling audiences far and wide with her cutting edge and soulful performances. 

2010 saw the release of her album 'Lost Where I Belong', produced by Bonobo, with fellow Ninja Tune singer and songwriter Fink also stepping up to co-write two tracks for the album. 'Lost Where I Belong' is a beautifully honest album combining Soul, Folk, Jazz and Bonobo's cinematic magic in a highly anticipated and hotly tipped debut... watch out for Andreya Triana!

Cantinho das Cores was formed by TRKZ, May Mbira and Nandele in late night improvisation sessions.


The novelty in this project is the insatiable interest in the exploration of instruments and rhythms. Guitars, tambourines, mbiras, loop pedals, synthesizers, and many more instruments are combined in a playful meditation on music and their own lives. Cantinho das Cores is the result of existing individual compositions by the three musicians and an ongoing collective process of creation. Their skills are combined in a virtuous and unique manner, bringing the listener to familiar yet staggering sounds.


TRKZ, May Mbira and Nandele are among the most promising and relevant artists in Mozambique
