Hi! It's me! Tinayeshe :)

In short, I'm a Charlotte, NC born and raised Zimbabwean American, who makes music for a diverse group of people, and points back to the One I love most through my art and life.

I also play pickleball, basketball, and have a deep affection for Avatar - The Last Airbender. Fun fact about those favorite sports, shows, and music: I have experienced the fullness of those activities in community.

No game of pickleball felt as good as when I played with my brother, Jack, for five hours, before he had to leave for camp. Basketball was always my first love; and when I started Sunday hoops with our church community and those who walked by and joined in, I'd play until I could barely walk, because it felt that good to (get buckets) be in fellowship. Shows are sweeter when watched with friends. A plot twist hits harder with someone beside you. Every concert I've ever put on has felt more meaningful with friends and family present on the stage and in the room. That's you. You make this music worth creating. Lastly, and certainly not least, my life has never been the same since responding to the Spirit's call and Jesus' invitation to deep communion with the Father.

This is the essence of my second album, titled "Communion". This collection of songs invites you to lean into the mystery of deep communion with God and people, and the fullness of joy that comes thereof. It's the narrow path, but it's the better one. Trust me.

Hopefully, you are enjoying "Through the Valley"; and if you believe in me, desire more music, better music, and sick merch out in the world, please consider supporting this project financially! Thank you in advance for your continued generosity. I could not do this without you.

Here are some shamelessly manipulative photos of me as a child.

blessings,

Tinayeshe
