For Mandela’s 94th birthday I made this song. The song contains samples of Madiba’s inauguration speech in 1994, and also a sample of Madiba speaking on tolerance and forgiveness. The hope of this song is that it will inspire South Africans to remember the legacy that Mandela left. “Never, never and never again shall it be [...]
Interview on 5FM
The Rob Forbes show kindly invited us for an interview and a live performance on 5FM! Rob Forbes and Fix were really great interviewers and there were many laughs. Was a really awesome experience and one of the most nerve racking performances I think we’ve ever done. It’s weird playing to millions of listeners but [...]
The Kiffness ‘Voetsek’ playlisted on 5fm!
So The Kiffness’ first single ‘Voetsek’ has made it onto the 5fm playlist. We were thrown into the deep end when Rob Forbes decided to put us up against ‘The Harlem’ shake for the #NewFavourite feature. The odds were seriously stacked against us, but somehow we got more votes than The Harlem Shake!! What the [...]

Kiffing the Daisies
I’m afraid I only took two pictures during my time at Rocking the Daisies. This here picture of a ‘Goldfish man’ with a pole up its butt during The Nomadic Orchestra’s performance. And a picture with me and the Goldfish man with the girl who made the Goldfish man. I told her that I am Goldfish [...]
OPPIKOPPI 2012
We got our first real taste of the road as a band when we headed off from the bottom left hand corner of South Africa across to the top right hand part. Probably the longest South African roadtrip possible. But anyway we made it to OppiKoppi and played one of the kiffest shows we’ve played [...]
