Dusty & Stones is a musical duo from Eswatini, Africa. The country music ensemble is made up of Gazi ‘Dusty’ Simelane and Linda ‘Stones’ Msibi’s. They are cousin brothers who hail from Mooihoek, Hlathikulu, in the Shiselweni region. They started off with Dusty leading the band and Stones taking guitar parts until a local reporter remarked that their names would sound much better as a duo. So she joined their names and Dusty & Stones was born.

The two grew up listening to the music of Don Williams and Kenny Rogers. They later discovered other great artists like Alan Jackson, Dwight Yoakam, Vince Gill, Brad Paisley, Brooks and Dunn, The Bellamy Brothers, Kris Krissstofferson, LeeAnn Womack and many others.

While growing up, they had no idea that one day they would become country music artists. Back then they used to learn how to play the guitar. They played songs which they heard on the radio’s Country program. A number of people encouraged them to seriously consider music as part of their profession. They began playing in church and restaurants with their sisters and friends.

Dusty & Stones have had their musical journey documented in a feature length film. Dusty & Stones (the film) is a continent-crossing hero’s journey story told through country music. The documentary intimately chronicles the remarkable ride of Dusty and Stones, a determined duo who long for their big break.
