Hanu De Jong (Not My Dog, The Narrow)
Hanu De Jong is a powerful force as a live vocalist and frontman, but his artistic evolution also matches his onstage presence.Progressing from brawling, beer-soaked 7-string riffs and mind-bending time shifts with Not My Dog, he formed melodic rock outfit The Narrow in the early 00s with his brother Emile (also a co-founder of NMD), proving beyond doubt his ability to craft epic, evocative melodies and a not insignificant set of vocal chops. Hanu is astute, funny, kind and focused on constantly creating - all of which came through clearly in this awesome conversation.NOT MY DOG:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@notmydogbandSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/7p5v2JRt5D9QjHn3u8h16T?si=MZ_2k3AARPKdySg-I2Wk5wApple Music: https://music.apple.com/gb/artist/not-my-dog/472990925THE NARROW:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@hanu0303Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/00hP5aJk3HbvFpXzcBeSl3?si=8enxa0wVQ32XLoUjw9D3bQApple Music: https://music.apple.com/gb/artist/the-narrow/299435311 Hosted on Acast.

The South African Nu-Metal Roundtable (Pestroy, 16Stitch & Marlowe)
The South African scene wouldn't be what it was without community - and there were arguably no stronger examples than the metal and punk communities that spanned the country. While there was friendly competition, there was ultimately support and collaboration at every turn.That's the era I came up in, and so talking with these three friends was not only a hilarious treat, but also very meaningful as we reconnect after some 20 years.I'll let the episode do the talking...PESTROY:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTydtWH0kF2VQlV_DP3MFuQhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/3baf1D1VQZUemM5vrukbLW?si=zNQxpOh9Srub4qOPBOT7vwhttps://music.apple.com/gb/artist/pestroy/25487573016STITCH:https://youtu.be/3XglpfkD2wI?si=VvEwoiWLYa0TASxiNEWTOWN KNIFE GANG:https://www.youtube.com/@newtownknifeganghttps://music.apple.com/gb/artist/newtown-knife-gang/437204292MARLOWE:13 videosPlay allhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/4ZY49Da5Jtv8pfmea1XWdu?si=AkZRbZG8Q0iFKHp9g_zz3Ahttps://music.apple.com/gb/album/lines-from-the-broken-telephone/1377206148HOKUMhttps://www.youtube.com/@HOKUMBANDSAhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/06zsO0gfNuux6sp6vSYRBV?si=XoSrJ-gbSmyoOmUc883J4ghttps://music.apple.com/gb/artist/hokum/379976432 Hosted on Acast.

John Ellis (Tree63)
John Ellis and Tree63 have written some of the catchiest, most heartfelt songs to come out of South Africa - and their message is one of faith, hope and personal spiritual connection. John is a gifted songwriter with a knack for melody and arrangement, and a brilliantly honest lyric writing style that has captured hearts and ears all over the world.I loved this conversation about Tree63's message, their journey, and how John thinks about being a South African - and a South African in music.We first connected over a fascinating piece he published, "10 South African Songs That Taught Me To Be South African".
