Faustina Charles Mfinanga, maarufu by her stage name Nandy is a Tanzanian singer and songwriter. Amewahi kushinda All Africa Music Awards twice kama the best female artist in East Africa category in 2017 and 2020.

Nandy alizaliwa Moshi kwa Mary Charles, mshonaji and Charles Mfinanga, a mechanic.

The name Nandy imefupishwa from her real name Nandera. She started performing at 5 na she was an active member of her Sunday school choir at KKKT Lutheran church 

Muziki wake ulianza kupaa when a common friend introduced her to Ruge Mutahaba, CEO of Tanzania House of Talent (THT). Hapo ndo alikutana na producer Emma the Boy, who produced her first single, Nagusagusa, nyimbo iliyokuja kutamba sana ndani ya wiki moja tu.

In early 2016 alishiriki in a singing competition ‘Tecno own the stage.’

The contest featured contestants from all over Africa and during the finals in Lagos, Nigeria, Nandy alikuwa mshindi wa pili. The competition groomed her well music wise, as she gained performance confidence, and also acquired essential knowledge of the music industry from the musical tutors and mentors such as chocolate City's M.I Abaga, Yemi Alade na Bien kutoka Sauti Sol.
