Dar es Salaam, Tanzania | NOW THEN DIGITAL — Apple Music has announced that Afro-pop artist Abigail Chams, known as Abigail Chamungwana, is the latest talent to join its Up Next artist development program in East Africa.

Expressing her excitement, Abigail said, “I am excited and honoured to be the focus artist on Up Next East Africa. I am thrilled for this opportunity to celebrate East African music and I represent Bongo Flava on my debut EP 5.”

Abigail, who hails from Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, has a rich musical background. She is a multilingual singer, performing in Swahili, French, and English, and is also a proficient multi-instrumentalist, playing the violin, piano, guitar, flute, and drums.
