We received the honour of attending the inaugural launch of Wawela Music Awards (Wawela means GO BEYOND – the name itself is derived from the Zulu language). These awards aim to celebrate South African musicians who are breaking borders with their music, composition, creativity and not directly aimed at the popularity of an artist within his/her craft. The awards are open to all SAMRO members and a variety of composers were selected across the multitude of music genres.
