This is a simple story of rural meeting urban, a vivid description of a song being written for how "the chase" often does not end up with a "catch" as well...


Umleqwa

The song is about the idea of being imortalized, as well as being reveered for your work, as it states about the work of a person. The theme is that of never dying, as if you do, you works shall defend you. 

This song features Bongani Tulwana, who also assisted in the sound.

The ultimate throwback, the moments when we dig through our archives, to find the gems in our journey. This taken from our show at the barn entitled “The Journey”, and what a journey it has been. We have been on a fast ride, and have held on for dear life…The beginning is never easy, but we recall that have had the support of our people from onset. Many, many stages and shows later we are happy to know that we are still consumed by sound. 
This song is “Idliso” live, taken a showcase at the barn 

The musicians we had: Sandile Bailer Suka (Electric guitar), Xola Chinno Kulati (Drums), Mtheza Malakane (keys), Terrence Freshly SA (Backing Vocals) and our musical guest Lifa Mosea (Saxhophone). 

The live show was recorded, mastered by Sisa Juqashe and Tobela Fibi.

CAUTION!
Every song we make is for our selfish gain, driven by our divine perspective.

The songs are mainly fixated on our social experiences whether affecting us directly or indirectly , showcasing with the hope that someone out there might relate one way or the other.

Umle is a duo of artists who make good music; they reside in Port Elizabeth, South Africa and have managed to win the hearts of the intimate PE scene. The aim is to take them as a band to international recognition, yet remaining independent. The one way that they describe their music is "sis today" (today's sound mixed with all influences)
