Shishani possesses the rare ability to address weighty topics with both softness and determination. Their voice, both mystically light and emotionally powerful, carries timeless messages that resonate deeply with listeners.

Shishani has founded various groups including Namibian Tales, Miss Catharsis, Shakuar and Sisterhood centralizing marginalized voices through unique artistic crossovers. Their work reaches people around the world, with an impressive list of shows throughout Europe, UK, China, South Korea, Jordan, India, Morocco, Malawi, Russia, Kenya, South Africa and Namibia.
