Hi friend. I’ve got so much to share with you, sit down for this one haha.
New Feature: Jasper - (INKOSI YOMUSA)
Not sure if I mentioned this in a newsletter or perhaps I sent a link to this (blog), but a few months ago I lost a friend I’ve sang with for yrs in the Jasper group. He was lead singer in the group and had been spearheading the production of the group’s new album. One of the songs that now feature in the Album, which Moses never got to see through, is called (Lord You Are Holy). I sing the second verse and part of the adlibs in the chorus in the end.
Listen to the Song here:

Gongs
Over the two weekends of 28, 29 November and 5 December, I attended a Level 1 training on Gong playing. In one of our workshop sessions i experienced what i can only describe as a miracle- ive felt lighter ever since! I’ve definitely grown an affinity for the the use of music and sound for wellness. The certificate is hanging on my wall now, and I now own my first Gong. I’m excited to keep playing, for myself and for those around me. 2021 onwards, life is going to be super ecstatic and i intend to contribute significantly to that unfolding reality!
New Song.
Over the past few weeks I’ve also been in studio making music. I’ve since made a song I’d like to co-create with you. Here’s the first look at the song. (Listen to SPIRIT SONG). What do you feel when you hear the song? What do you think we should sing about in this song?
Listen to Spirit Song
My friend and producer sent me a demo of a song we made more than 3yrs ago. I have made it available on site here temporarily.
Listen to Siyavuma: Visit My Music > Limited Listen
On my way out I’d like to say HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO YOU AND YOURS! 2020 is over now. Let’s flip the page and regroup for a comeback of the century!
