Having been discovered by A.B.R.A Tribe in 2008, Ireland based Zimbabwean singer and song writer has since grown from strength to strength. Now signed to the teame she has just scooped three nominations at the Ireland African Music Awards, Best Female Artiste, Best Female Gospel Artiste, and Best Collaboration, the songstress now calls upon Zimbabweans to rally behind her for the online voting. The award ceremony, an equivalent to the UK’s African Music Awards or the US’s BET awards, will be nationally televised recognising the most influential Africans in the Irish Music industry on the 2nd of September.
Kyriah faces stiff competition from Nigerian Artists Grace Amagh and Debsandy but is grateful for the honour “Im really humbled to be nominated just on my debut for such big categories, and such an honour to represent my country”. Its is not the first honour she has gotten this year, as she got two nominations this year at the Zimbabwe Achievers Awards for Video of the Year and Female Artist of the year. She has been busy promoting her single Turn Around, and working with top Irish DJ’s and Platinum Agency and Entertainment to establish her local presence and recently got an endorsement deal from telecommunications company Vuvucall. Her live performance as opener at Multi-platinum selling artist Lira’s concert proved her as the “little Lira” of Ireland. Kyriah has been described by Irish Newspaper Daily Star as “mega-talented” and yet she remains committed to represent and support her homeland. She is currently raising awareness and funds for The Girl Child Network through her campaign “The Girl With The Black Umbrella” Kyriah is also working on releasing some tracks in Zimbabwe that i am honoured to be producing with a few surprising collaborations in the bag. ABRA Simz is currently in Zimbabwe working on his release strategy for his homeland.
