SoJaZZme and IKS Join Forces for the sake of Proudly South African Music

“Jazz & Freedom go hand in hand. That explains it… And there ain’t nothin’ more to add, or remove, from it. Ya dig?!” Thelonius Monk


It is with great pleasure to announce that Ayanda Music from our very own booking agency, is one of the selected artists to perform at the upcoming SoJaZZme mini-festival to take place on Human Rights/Sharpeville Day. Ayanda Music is a concept designed by Ayanda Nhlangothi who is not only a breathtakingly fantastic singer and songwriter, but a fine keyboard and guitar player. She is at home with music as well as acting. Ayanda will take you on a cultural trip from the soul of Nquthu to the streets of Harlem virtually seamlessly – indeed, what is jazz?
