Sibusile Xaba - Open Letter To Adoniah
No ratings.

Limited Edition of 600 Copies on 180 Gram Heavyweight Black Vinyl 

A lynchpin in South Africa’s new generation of jazz musicians, KwaZulu-Natal-born guitarist and vocalist Sibusile Xaba has all the makings of an acoustic guitar master. With a vocal style that is part dreamscaping and part ancestral invocation, Xaba divines as opposed to plainly singing. Combined with a guitar style that is rooted in expressive picking, he shatters the confines of genre, taking only the fundamentals from mentors such as Madala Kunene and Philip Tabane and imbuing these with a mythology and improvisational intensity all of his own.

“Part acoustic guitar visionary, part urban mythologist, Sibusile Xaba’s improvisational style hints at maskandi, while also shrinking the middle passage to connect jazz to its precolonial antecedents.” Kwanele Sosibo
