Short description
TS Records has struck gold with the labels newest signing, Zahara. Already the singer, songwriter and guitarist from the Eastern Cape has caused a stir with a guest appearance on Nhlanhla Ncizas DVD and a vocal cameo on Sound Revival. Working with producers like Robbie Malinga, Zahara represents a new generation of South African female artists through her songwriting and guitar playing evoking comparisons with the likes of Tracy Chapman, though featuring lyrics that are in Xhosa and so making for a distinctly South African sound.

Her lyrics are empowering. When I listen to her songs, e.g. Destiny; Incawadi Encane and Umthwalo, I feel like she's communicating with my inner being. I love her appropriate beats for every song and the English-Xhosa mix. Her songs come from her emotions and that makes it personal and enjoyable and easy to relate to.
