Biography

Dreamy, minimalistic, new: Nelia Masengu makes music created between Bern, Zurich, and Basel. Her songs, sung in English and French, create a gentle and warm atmosphere. The melodramatic lyrics meet a calm and honest voice that conveys comfort. Her songs were produced by Kevin Wettstein (Melodiesinfonie), together with her drummer Jasper Wermuth in August 2023 in Zürich. Her music is characterized by improv sessions with her father, the many evenings in Marian's Jazzroom in Bern, explorations of Black culture and R’nB influences.
