With love and Peace...
The nomvula song has to be my favorite, It really stirs my insides! Wish I spoke the language! :) Great compo.
Love you guys!
I was taken with Zolani's voice as she was being interviewed by the BBC and when I heard the song I was hooked, its such an honest basic song that gets me where it matters. Right there in my soul, which is where music should be felt.
Not bad considering Im an English white male :P
Youre style reminds me of Katie Melua and also Koko Kaina
Bless you all for touching my soul
