Like most South Africans we love reggae and so we’re devoting a show to some of the best SA reggae tunes.
The country has produced some of the biggest selling reggae artists, like Lucky Dube (who was the best-selling African artist of all time but remains relatively unknown in Europe and North America). Even rock and folk musiscians can’t resist adding a little reggae vibe to their sets…
In this episode, we feature the music of:
- Jambo
- Koos Kombuis
- Bernoldus Niemand
- Springbok Nude Girls
- Tim Parr
- Dr Victor & The Rasta Rebels
- Van der Want – Letcher
- Ras Dumisani
- Lucky Dube
- Juluka
These are the links to artists and events covered in our news section:

- Nox
- Swiss/South African jazz collaborations
