BEHIND THE MIC - MAJOZI
Majozi is a proudly South African musician who has recently emerged onto the scene from the coastal city of Durban.
At the age of thirteen, he started to teach himself guitar, which eventually led to him studying a foundation course in jazz and popular
music at the University of KwaZulu Natal.
He describes his music as being Indie-folk with subtle influences of electro and attributes his faith as one of his musical inspirations.
In 2013, he released his first EP, Marvelous Light, which was recorded and produced by Warren Meyer of Doppler Studios. The album made it to no.9 overall on the South African iTunes chart and no.1 in the singer/songwriter category.
Following the online success and popularity of the EP, his single, The River, was play-listed on 5FM, Kfm and other radio stations across the country. The infectious beat and meaningful lyrics have fans singing along with gusto at all the gigs he has been landing.
Over the past year, Majozi has been steadily climbing the South African music ladder, getting the opportunity to open for Matthew Mole, Gangs of Ballet, Zebra and Giraffe, Mango Groove, Matthew Mole and international artist, Yoav.

BEHIND THE MIC WITH CRAIG LUCAS
As a child, he suffered from performance anxiety, and this resulted in him only ever singing to himself in his room.
The likes of Danny K and TKzee were idols of his, and ultimately he took the plunge and entered a reality show. This show, The Voice SA, helped this shy guy rise to the challenge. A Restless Affair, worthy of a listen.
His name is Craig Lucas, listen as he joins me Behind the Mic

TIMO ODV
One of the best conversations I have had with one of the most driven and focused people I’ve ever met.
Chilled demeanour but I managed to get a whole lot out of @TimoODV including his love of gqom music , how DJ Cleo and hip hop changed his life and how Youtube tutorials helped him become the producer he is today.
