Born in Los Angeles but raised in Boston Prophet is truly a kid of two coasts. As a second generation singer-songwriter and photographer he has learned by doing.

As the front man for the tribute band PK & the Mighty Seven (est. 2014)\, he honed his craft as a vocalist\, performer\, and live sound engineer.

Mwalim will headline the Blues & Soul Showcase at POSTunderground in Brookline on June 12\, bringing his acclaimed Blues Griot performance to one of the region’s most vibrant listening spaces. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInstagram\n\nFacebook\n\nYouTube\n\nSpotify
