Reinel Bakole

Reinel Bakole is an accomplished dancer and vocalist in avant-garde soul, blending music, movement, and poetry into a singular, multidisciplinary universe. In 2024, she released her debut album Healing Exhaustion, acclaimed for its emotional depth and powerful live performances across Europe and beyond – including Montreux Jazz Festival Residency, Hong Kong, Paris and Gent Jazz. Her stage work explores vulnerability and transformation through sound and physical expression.

Having not released new music since Healing Exhaustion, Reinel Bakole returned with Humble Me. Through this music, she feels free of any judgment, she sings how precious, loving and smart she is. She unveils character and heartfelt presence with the intention to connect closer.

Looking ahead, Reinel Bakole is entering a fertile new phase of creation. Whether through sound, movement, or visual storytelling, Reinel continues to carve space for honesty, rawness and radical presence in everything she creates. Her next offerings promise to be as poetic and genre-defying as the path she’s already traced.
