Vahni releases Step from the Dark

Live Life Music Group (LLMG) recording artiste Vahni, has released Step from the Dark. The song is the follow-up to his recent effort Boo, which was featured on the On Fleek rhythm and produced by Markus Records.

Music has been somewhat of a comfort for the up and coming singjay. Since the death of his brother, music has been his best friend.

"Well my brother was the only friend I had at the time and when he passed away, the only thing that could comfort me was music. By listening to music I have developed a passion for it, hence I decided to start writing songs on my own," Vahni, originally from St Thomas, explained.

He described his musical journey. "It has been great and still is, because people were always telling me that I was born to do music, however at times it gets rough when you don't have the financial support, but I've still gotten through because I enjoy what I do, and music is my life," he said.

Born Shawnpierre Thompson, Vahni has worked with a number of producers including Markus Records, Allfaces Records and Armzhouse Records.

The artiste explained what inspired him musically. "What inspires me musically is the love I have for music itself, and by listening to other artistes and hearing their struggles. Singing and sharing what they have been through. Things that I have seen for myself in my everyday

surrounding, the struggles I myself have faced, and knowing that I have the ability - the gift to write and sing - that's what inspires me - that's what keeps me doing music".

Vahni's 5-track EP, Unpredicted is expected to be released shortly.
