Anjimile and his passion for singing can be felt in his enchanting and powerful voice

Anjimile Chithambo who is better known by his stage name Anjimile, is a Boston-based American folk artist with a captivating and strong voice. Anjimile’s narrative is unusual, yet it is inspiring nonetheless. He is a trans person battling his own demons yet he unearths the most unpleasant aspects of his life in the hopes of finding catharsis.

Anjimile has been nibbling away at music as a pastime-turned coping mechanism for the past decade. Coming out to their parents as gay led to the song “Maker,” which equates a gender redefinition to a religious redefinition and prepared the way for Giver Taker, their first album on Father/Daughter. Giver Taker tells a long journey to sobriety, the death of loved ones, and the growing discovery of their identity as a nonbinary trans person, written during the throes of a personal decline and recorded after achieving safety on the other side.

The album was named one of the top 50 albums of the year in 2020. Giver Taker, Anjimile’s first full-length album, was released in 2020 on Father/Daughter Records. Anjimile is an “artist you need to know,” according to Rolling Stone Magazine, and their song “Baby No More” was named a “Song You Need To Know” by the publication. Anjimile was also named Artist of the Month by Consequence of Sound.” Anjimile had self-produced and published a number of albums prior to releasing the full-length album.
