There are moments in music that arrive quietly, without fireworks, but still feel deeply important. Last Sunday evening, one of those moments arrived for me. My song “Leisong” was played on Lesedi FM, during the station’s Sunday evening Jazz programme. According to Soundcharts, the song aired at 19:42 UTC+2 and was broadcast for 252 secondsContinue reading “Leisong finds a home on Lesedi FM Jazz”

 I am deeply honoured to have been nominated for Best Jazz Album at the BOMU Awards for my album Sephonono.  For me, this nomination is about more than visibility.

When I created this work, I wanted to honour theContinue reading “A Nomination Close To My Heart”

It’s been a little quiet here lately, and I wanted to share why. The past few weeks haven’t been about posting or performing—they’ve been about building. Deep, behind‑the‑scenes work. The kind you don’t always see online, but the kind that makes everything else possible. Sephonono Live: Homecoming has entered its final stretch. I’m happy (andContinue reading “Sephonono is back online”
