Internet Athi & Mishy Kope

Heat Festival x Quiet Life Co presents an evening of soul, storytelling and song.

Please join us as we welcome:

Internet Athi — Apple Music’s Up Next SA artist and one of the country’s most exciting new voices in jazz and neo-soul. Blending South African jazz, folk, R&B and neo-soul with raw emotional storytelling, Athi’s breakout singles Wena, Nguwe and Undithembisile have racked up nearly 3 million streams. His debut album Polymorphism — a meditation on love in all its forms — landed him a spot on the 2026 Standard Bank Joy of Jazz lineup just two days after release. Backed by a full live band (drums, bass, keys, violin, flute and sax), expect an immersive, deeply felt performance.

Mishy Kope — an Afro-folk and soul singer-songwriter from the Eastern Cape, writing and singing primarily in isiXhosa. From her breakout Qongqotha to recent releases like Sanalam, Mama and Watsho, Mishy’s music is honest, reflective storytelling rooted in heritage — songs that uplift, challenge and connect.

Two artists. One stage. A night of heart and heritage.
