Desire Marea's music is eclectic and avant-garde, but never cold or restless. The KwaZulu-Natal born artist is a founding member of the beloved Joburg collective FAKA. Since going solo Marea's created a truly singular, ceremonial sound that draws from the music of the Nguni and Ndau people. His voice can move from a soaring falsetto to a deep-chested growl. Songs of truth, sexuality, seduction and connection to nature are drenched in modulation and hovering strings. They're often lifted by swells of horns, or driven by hard bop jazz. It's all delivered through Desire's kaleidoscopic, spiritual lens.
He's coming to RISING with a six-piece band, a new record and a new single called 'Be Free' to share. It's tender, adventurous, triumphant music for the body and soul.
Debby Friday is in support. She's an artist who started out building an uncompromisingly fierce whirlwind of rapping, drill, tech-step and punk.
Part of RISING.
