Our first concert under the musical direction of Sikhulule Cooper Mlokoti, honouring the legacy that brought us here while embracing new artistic possibilities.
We joined Relebogile Mabotja on 702 Afternoons for 702 Unplugged, and the Randburg Sun covered Bokamoso and our evolving artistic direction.
We spent the day with 54 teenage girls at Abraham Kriel Children's Home, sharing toiletries, food, song, conversation and prayer.
