A'Rise (Sun-El Musician, Kay Faith, Kooldrink)

Date TBA

Kay Faith is a South African award-winning audio engineer turned chart topping record producer. Having worked with some of the biggest Hip Hop artists in South Africa, she has proven herself not only as Kaapstad’s tastemaker but also as an important part of South Africa’s music scene. With each set she DJs, each classic she samples and each hit she creates, she shows us that we can draw inspiration from all corners of SA and that sound can be exported to the world. Hayi suka man!
Kooldrink is an artist at the forefront of AfricanDance Music and Amapiano. He's globally recognized as one of a sprinkling of producers able to authentically represent their local scene while also fulfilling their potential to exist in the global pop and dance space. He artfully balances raw street flavor with exceptionally detailed sound design, and rich, saccharine musical progressions.
Sun-El Musician: Musician, producer, DJ, and music enthusiast alike. When not performing, he spends his time in the studio creating his own music aided by over a decade of working in studio and an upbringing in a very musically influenced home.
