Trailblazing South African artist Moonchild Sanelly has revealed details of her highly anticipated third studio album, Full Moon, set for release this week on 10th January 2025 via Transgressive Records. Alongside the album announcement, Moonchild has also confirmed a headline tour of the UK and Ireland, kicking off in Manchester on 18th March 2025 and culminating with a show at London’s Heaven on 26th March 2025.
Full Moon: A Bold and Dynamic New Chapter
Described as a “musical shapeshifter,” Moonchild Sanelly recorded Full Moon across Malawi, the UK, and Sweden, collaborating with acclaimed producer Johan Hugo (known for his work with Self Esteem, M.I.A., and Kano). The album features 12 genre-defying tracks blending electronic, afro-punk, kwaito, edgy-pop, and hip-hop elements.
Latest single To Kill a Single Girl (Tequila) builds on a series of powerful releases, including the audacious Scrambled Eggs, Sweet & Savage, and the fan-favorite Big Booty. Album track Gwara Gwara has already made waves by being included on the EA Sports FC25 Soundtrack.

Reflecting on the album, Moonchild said,
“Full Moon is me, lit up in my entirety. The arrival of my whole self. It’s a culmination of every emotion I’ve experienced—fights, sadness, forgiveness, and acceptance. It’s about mental and spiritual togetherness that makes you whole.”
