Her song has been trending worldwide from the time it released. The Manike Mage Hithe artist, Yohani, gained international recognition for her rendition of the popular Sri Lankan song that was an instant hit, topping all the chartbusters. The Sri Lankan singer-songwriter is currently exploring the music industry in India and is preparing to release her debut album, which is centered on women and their experiences.
1. How did you get inclined towards music and when did you start pursuing it as a career?
I started my musical journey when my parents enrolled me in piano class, which eventually led me to playing guitar as well. While pursuing my education, I also created a YouTube channel in 2016 and started doing occasional covers. After completing my masters in 2019, I decided to give music a serious try and returned to Sri Lanka from Australia. It was in 2021 that my song "Manike Mahe Hithe" became a hit.
2. Your music is a unique fusion of different genres. How do you come up with your original sound and what inspires you to create this type of music?
My inspiration comes from a diverse range of people whom I encounter during my travels to various countries and experience different cultures. I find it fascinating how each individual has a unique taste in music and their life stories inspire me. Currently, I am exploring the music and sounds of India. Though I am not a trained singer, I am constantly learning and striving to improve. Music is my passion and it allows me to express my thoughts to my audience.
3. You have collaborated with several artists from different countries. How do you approach collaborations, and what do you look for in a collaborator?
