Episode 15 of our South African Jazz Community Showcase series features the prolific talents of alto man Tshepo Tsotetsi, supported by long time collaborators Viwe Mkizwana on bass & S'kumbuzo Mbhele on drums. Tshepo's compositions are rich with the influences of a well travelled explorer, but firmly rooted in the South African landscape and the love between the three guys is tangible, and fills this emotive music with joy. check out Tshepo's Rhodes chops as an added bonus here !
