Sereetsi & the Natives is a refreshing definitive reference in the contemporisation of folk music in Botswana and a unique voice in the World Music arena. The act presents a fearless new sound that is as forward looking as is rooted in the indigenous musical traditions of Botswana.
Sereetsi’s signature is the Botswana four string folk guitar and the many traditional rhythms of the southern African country. A songwriter, producer and author, Sereetsi has emerged as the foremost curator of this oral guitar tradition, thanks also in part to the release of his acclaimed book/CD, the first ever guitar instructional book/CD in Botswana, titled The Solo Four String Guitar of Botswana.
The 83 page book resulted from a research of the Botswana folk guitar's tuning, chords, song form, origin and development.
Sereetsi & the Natives debut album, Four String Confessions is due for release April 30, 2015. The album, which features US harmonica virtuoso, Mitch Grainger and Swedish drummer and producer, Mikael Rosen, .is arguably one of the most anticipated records in the country this year.
