Oshun formed in 2012 in South Africa, led by singer-songwriter Thandiwe Nikiwe Bam. The group includes musicians Wawa Mngqibisa and Zibusiso Mxoi. Their music draws from traditional African rhythms and modern electronic production.
Their debut album 'Ashes to Snow' came out in 2014, followed by 'Eversince' in 2016. Songs like 'Blessing On Blessings' and 'Stuck' show their blend of soulful vocals with contemporary grooves. Their lyrics often address social themes.
Oshun's sound developed through these releases, moving from the Afro-soul foundation of their first album to more experimental territory on the second. They've built a following for music that feels both rooted and forward-looking.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
