Elsy Wameyo - Saint SInner (Limited Edition Vinyl)

Elsy Wameyo - Saint SInner

Limited Edition of 200

Elsy Wameyo has emerged as a force to be reckoned with in recent years. Against a changing social and cultural landscape, Elsy’s work has elevated and evolved – a chameleonic artist pouring life’s lessons and experiences into dynamic pieces of art.

2022 saw the release of the Kenyan artist's long-awaited debut EP, NILOTIC, a self-produced six-track fusion of hip hop, alt-R&B and soul-infused music. The EP was a moment of arrival: acknowledging Elsy’s heritage – the Nilotic peoples indigenous to the Nile Valley – the powerful collection of music put Elsy on a national radar. It was impassioned music that genre fans had become inspired by, thanks to artists like Kendrick Lamar and Little Simz.

As a result, Elsy has accepted multiple accolades. These include a deserved six wins at the South Australia Music Awards for Best Studio Engineer/Producer, Best Music Video, Best Song, Best Solo Artist & Best Release, and later being crowned triple j Unearthed’s Artist of the Year. 

She's then supported Genesis Owusu, Sampha The Great and The Hilltop Hoods. 

Now, Elsy Wameyo's debut LP SAINT SINNER is an album of reclamation and self-empowerment.

A powerful collection of music that journeys themes of identity and spirituality, SAINT SINNER documents a potent and poignant chapter of Elsy’s personal and artistic evolution. Through the turmoil and tumult of young adulthood, navigating the modern world as a Black woman has been a process not without its constant struggles – struggles to find a sense of purpose, clear identity and belonging. 

Just the way she intended.

SAINT SINNER is released as a double album set - SAINT in heavyweight clear vinyl and SINNER in heavyweight black vinyl. It's numbered to only 200 with an individually-numbered obi strip (not pictured) and is only available to pre-order on Impressed. 

Exclusive to the pre-order is a purpose-written essay from renowned journalist and broadcaster Sose Fuamoli.
