Nova Concerts: Uma Kabongo

In 2024, she released her debut single Intentions Change — a title that says something about what drives her music: that everything is in motion, and that this is often where the most interesting things begin to happen. The song reached 60,000 streams worldwide and introduced an artist able to hold reflection, vulnerability and quiet confidence in the same breath. There is melancholy in her music, but also an undercurrent of hope that keeps it open.

On stage, Uma Kabongo creates a space where intimacy and movement exist side by side. Her voice settles into songs with softness, while the music gradually builds until the whole room is with her. What shapes the experience is not spectacle, but honesty. Her vulnerability never feels fragile; it gives the music its strength and its human reach.

For the audience, this is more than a concert to attend. It is a chance to witness an artist at a meaningful moment — when a voice steps forward and a musical identity finds its shape. There is something rare in that. Not the weight of arrival, but the excitement of recognising the first clear contours of an artistic path that may go much further.

Nova Concerts is drawn to artists at the moment when their identity becomes unmistakable — when what they carry and what they are shaping begin to speak with the same voice. Uma Kabongo is in that moment. Her expression is still in motion, yet it already stands clearly. That is exactly the kind of concert that matters to us. 

Join us for an evening of closeness, movement and music that invites you in from the very first note. We would love to share it with you.
