The Saints and I kicked serious ass on the second night. I changed some songs around and forced Liam to take a drum solo. Shaun, on guitar, found his blues bones when playing Miss Celia’s Blues. In fact, we agreed it was one of our best shows yet. It bothers me that we chose the […]
This photo shoot was quick and fun. Only because I had an excellent stylist, Theo aka Ms Brown and a makeup artist Desiree Mogale at my side. The students came in, snapped all the pictures needed within an hour. Also, they took pics of my band! Classy black and white ones… Here’s some snaps Kolade […]

We are trying our best to make a difference in any way we can. You can purchase tickets to our BEING HUMAN performance by […]
Man, people have a very short attention span! Thirty seconds was all I was given by Kolade to get the message across! This perfomance was made possible through funding. There will be a live stream performance made available a week later.

I played this song in Cape Town a few months back. It was meant to be played on piano, and I do have a recording on keys. But thought I would share what it sounds like when accompanied by guitar. This is Shaun Francke doing his thing. Or as he is now known, ‘my outjie […]
A year ago. Two years ago. Three years ago. Things do indeed change. A year ago I was so heartbroken, and this was before my father passed. Two years ago even more so, the dreams of a future I thought I wanted proved false. Three years ago? I no longer remember. Or perhaps it isn’t […]
Everyone requires… a silver chord linking us the world above and below. So that we, her Hanged Men and Women can remain sane as we juggle the ordinary, the hard and ugly we are forced to confront everyday. The silver chord can take you to many places. Some filled with danger, where shadows creep and […]
