About This Event

MNEK is a musical polymath, able to translate perception, feeling, and mood into singular recordings and formal bodies of work utilising his instincts. “I’m nuanced, it’s not descript at times. I create for myself and for others,” he says. As a songwriter, producer, and front-of-house artist, MNEK has traversed the music industry since his mid-teens, his curiosity for the artform converged with the advent of social media — a catalyst for his migration into his vocation. Raised on a varied diet composed of Mariah Carey, The Sugababes, Spice Girls, Whitney Houston, Mis-Teeq, David Morales, his ear grew wedded to a miscellany of genres, regions, and sounds. “One minute it would be 90s R&B, then 2000s dance records, I wasn’t tied to any one thing and that was refreshing.”
