Mon Rovîa, whose birth name is Janjay, is a Liberian-born, Tennessee-based singer and songwriter whose music seamlessly blends lyrical indie pop, folk, and traditional African influences. His tumultuous beginnings, born into the Second Liberian Civil War and nearly becoming a child soldier before being adopted by Christian missionaries at age 7, deeply influenced the stories and themes explored through his vulnerable songwriting. After relocating with his adoptive missionary family, Mon Rovîa (also known as Andrew Lowe) spent his developmental years living in various places, accumulating diverse life experiences that contribute to his empathetic musical perspective aimed at providing healing across nations and dialects. Self-described as an "Afro-Appalachian folk artist", Mon Rovîa's stage name pays homage to his birthplace of Monrovia, Liberia. His music is characterized by introspective vulnerability, showcased in tracks like "When The World Goes Dark" which highlights his unique cursive singing style blending light and dark themes. He released his debut full-length album in May 2019 to positive reception, with his 2020 EP "Sunburnt" and singles further garnering attention for their sophisticated storytelling and sound. An indie alternative album is planned for fall release. Beyond his blossoming music career, Mon Rovîa has discussed his relationship with someone named Mily and intention to honor God while taking life day-by-day. He hopes to reconnect with family in Liberia after recently reestablishing contact with his sister after 20 years apart. Mon Rovîa's transformative journey from war-torn Africa to becoming a voice of resilience and healing through his music is an inspiring testament to his character and immense talent. His songs are available across major platforms like Spotify and Apple Music.
