Local Beginnings, Global Resonance
Cutting his teeth with local Kroonstad bands The Echos and Kroonstad Red Lions, Tshepiso’s artistry caught the discerning eye of William Mthethwa, who became pivotal as his mentor and producer for celebrated solo projects Nqoqele and Volkstad. A noteworthy chapter includes his stint with SAN.
