Biography

Nadia Mladjao can do anything. She carved a place for herself in a large Comorian family, where she always managed to have her say. She cut her teeth as a model in New York City before the calling from music was too strong to ignore. But Nadia would tap into true power, once she took the stage – under the name, Imany. She released two albums, "The Shape of a Broken Heart" (2011) and "The Wrong Kind of War" (2016), which blended soul and folk with incredible panache. Penning a hit, "Don’t Be So Shy", as the girl power anthem for the film Sous les jupes des filles, directed by Audrey Dana. Imany also broke taboos around endometriosis while fighting alongside the ENDOmind association – a move inspired by her own personal journey. Imany spoke about the responsibility of the artist when she performed at the Victoires de la Musique awards. And now, surround herself with eight cellists for an album of cover songs she makes all her own, "Voodoo Cello" (2021). Once again, Imany takes center stage, never forgetting where she came from.
