Two For Mistake

First Light

The Brother Moves On perform at Le Guess Who? 2022 following the release of their latest record '$/He Who Feeds You…Owns You'.

About:
There is a thread binding London and Johannesburg, of which internationally-acclaimed ensemble The Brother Moves On is part. Founded by artist Nkululeko Mthembu and his brother Siyabonga Mthembu, the collective (‘the most important band in the country’, says the Guardian) continues a lineage of South African protest music. It is 'a vessel of healing', says Mthembu. 

Recorded at TivoliVredenburg’s Pandora on Friday, 11 November 2022.

Nu Season is a jazz band that has five members; Bongani Mehlela Bass Guitarist, Joe Ndimande Lead Guitarist, Lefa Bembe Keyboard Player, Tshepo Mphela a Saxophone player  and Lindo Sibanyoni Drummer. They are well known in Witbank as Sounds of Kwa-Guqa but they have recently changed their name to Nu Season because they believe that this is a new season for them filled with great aspiration to reach the peak of their success/career. The band members met at Mzansi Jazz Lounge were they were part of different group; from their mutual love and interest in music they started their own jazz band in 2005. And later on 2012 joined by Tshepo Mphela to make a unique sound from the township of Emalahleni.  
They have graced Moretele Park with their presence. Their first performance as a group was at Witbank Dam in 2005 and they perfumed there until 2010, other platforms that they shared together as a band are Zithabiseni Jazz in 2006, Siyabuswa Arts and Culture in 2007, Mbombela up in smoke Lowveld Show Ground in September 2008 and being curtain raiser for Freshly Ground in December 2010 at The Ridge. Their latest performance was at the SABCOHA SAPEA Mini Conference 2012 in Turffontein Johannesburg.  Besides their performance at the jazz festivals and concert they are mostly known for their work as a session band. This includes playing for different Pubs, weddings, functions and churches. Their love and interest in music started at church. All the band members play two or more instruments.
The band has proudly recorded their five track album called Singabanqobi. Even though  they had limited funds, they decided to use little that they have to record and be known. We are hoping that we will be realizing our 11 track album in spring 2013.

Brain Fries

Tune Recreational Committee (TRC) Live at the Orbit in February 2017.  A formidable quintet  comprising of some of Cape Town’s  finest young musicians. Featuring Clement Benny on drums, Nicholas Williams on bass, Keenan Ahrends on guitar, Mandla Mlangeni on trumpet and special guest Mark Fransman on tenor saxophone, accordion and Yonela Mnana on piano. The unit is also set to perform in this year's 18th annual Cape Town International Jazz Festival.The Cape Town –based TRC takes original tunes and reinvents  nods from their influences to embracing vibrant underground music scene of drum and bass to Balkanology. Fusing imported sounds and exporting to their own flavour, either going into a Ghoema -tinged feel or just improvising around the melody. The T.R.C is the playground for the interrogation, assimilation and extended extemporisation from the canon of South African jazz heritage.
