Boskasie

Boskasie is a Cape Town born and raised singer/songwriter currently residing in Johannesburg. Having grown up in a family full of Jazz music lovers, she is inspired by the nostalgic sounds of Cape Jazz with her mother being a trumpeter and her dad a vocalist in the boys brigade. Boskasie’s extensive travels (she spent part of her early years in the Netherlands) have broadened the scope of her songwriting. Some have described her music as following an authentic urban contemporary sound, while others experience it as neo-soul. This unique cross-genre appeal is what makes Boskasie so special – you can’t quite box her. Her music follows an easy, hypnotic feel which takes the listener on a journey of discovery through her lens, which she herself categorises as “eclectic soul”. Eclectic melodies coupled with deep soulful lyrics.
