David Numwami (BE)
Armed with his biting writing and musical instinct, David Numwami writes with fire in his heart to better speak to ours. From his catchy rhythms to his strong identity, the Brussels-born artist documents his experiences with songs deliciously splashed with various genres, all while keeping pop as his compass. Buoyed by a vibrant debut EP, the multi-instrumentalist returns three years later, more in control than ever, with I LOVE YOU. An album composed in solitude in his Parisian “cabin,” a sort of sanctuary after a breakup, where he healed his broken heart through songs. David Numwami declares his love to the Universe and expresses this overflowing feeling in five tracks tinged with universality, polished productions, and touching introspection. The new romantic of Francophone pop, that’s him.
