I was born and raised in a village called Serowe in Botswana. That is a country located in Southern Africa. Growing up, I was immersed in a lot of music from my father’s collections, as he was a music lover and curator of note. I became captivated mostly by the African music and rhythms of Ali Faka Taure, Baba Mal, Hugh Masekela, Fela Kuti, Salif Keita, and many more. From then I went on a journey to study and learn more about this music, which paved my way to becoming a musician myself.
