Thanks for coming through! We are Blk Sonshine. We got together about 10 years ago in Yoeville which is a little suburb of Johannesburg in South Africa. We were both there playing our acoustic guitars at an open mic called Monday Blues. We went from doing little shows in South Africa to recording a CD in Los Angeles. Our CD was then picked up by Fresh Music in South Africa and became a hit amoungst the people. We have had an amazing journey which has included shows with Stevie Wonder, Hugh Masekela, Susana Baca, Mary J. Blige, India Arie, Dead Prez, Talib Kweli, Busi Mhlongo, Ronny Jordan, Jimmy Dludlu, Cheik Lo, Ismael Lo, Queen and too many more to mention here. There have been a lot of special times like the Nelson Madela 46664 concert where we met Mandela. It was also a real pleasure to end up in the studio putting together tracks with RZA from Wu Tang for Tekitha's CD one night. All in all we've managed to keep our integrity as artistic people and we've remembered to laugh. We call ourselves Blk Sonshine because we see ourselves as black sons of the African continent attempting to shine through music and make our mothers proud. Yeah! We are out to make it stylish to love your mom!
