PRESENTATION
IMANY
An admirer of Tracy Chapman, Nina Simone and Lauryn Hill, she rejects the RnB musical style proposed by some producers, preferring soul, folk and blues inspirations.
Her first EP, Acoustic Sessions, was released on legal download platforms at the end of 2010. In May 2011, she released her debut album, The Shape of a Broken Heart, which went platinum thanks to the success of her first single, You Will Never Know.
In 2013, the singer wrote and composed the soundtrack for the film Sous les jupes des filles, directed by Audrey Dana.
In 2015, Imany released a remix of her track Don’t Be So Shy by Russian DJ duo Filatov & Karas. But it was during April 2016 that the track saw itself propelled onto major radio stations around the world.
In 2016, Imany released her second EP There Were Tears as a prelude to her next album, due out at the end of the year.
After a break due to extensive international touring, Imany has returned to the stage until 2024 with “Vodoo Cello”, to marry her vocal timbre with the warm sounds of a cello ensemble.
To inform and raise awareness of endometriosis, Imany has become an ambassador for the ENDOmind association, which aims to organize or support actions to gain recognition for the disease as a genuine social and public health issue. On March 23, 2015, Imany organized the very first concert in France in support of the fight against endometriosis, with the participation of Pauline Croze, Emilie Gassin, Natalia Doco, Kery James, Mariama and Faada Freddy.
