A portrait in three movements.

Identity

A Congolese-born, Bolton-based Afro-gospel artist using music as a vehicle for peace, faith and community empowerment.

Craft

Writes uplifting, melody-led Afrobeat-influenced songs in English, French and Lingala, layering choir-style vocals with contemporary gospel production for listeners who want music that comforts and motivates.

Purpose

To turn the lived experience of war, displacement and faith into music that empowers communities — and to fund free music education for young people in Bolton through Tom Mulenge Music CIC.

"At HarmENT, we are incredibly proud to partner with artists who use their platform for genuine social good. Working alongside Tom Mulenge has allowed us to see first-hand the incredible footprint of Tom Mulenge Music CIC. From funding free music education for local youth to delivering vital music therapy in care homes, Tom is the blueprint for how music can drive community healing. We are thrilled to support his journey and amplify an artist who invests so deeply back into the people."
- The HarmENT Team — HarmENT

Now playing — Nothing Is Impossible.

"A faith-rooted Afrobeat anthem written for anyone facing displacement, doubt or hardship — born out of Tom's journey from Congo to Bolton and his youth work in the community."

What they're saying.

“We are celebrating 13 years as a fellowship of churches, and praising God that we are strong. We have so much to be thankful for; we are bringing people together, seeing the church grow, helping others, and seeing the impact of God at work in people's lives. It was an incredibly joyful occasion."
