  • Bio

    Bookings and info: South Africa: Band[at]BCUC.co.za Europe: Tour[at]BCUC.co.za Invest in BCUC's next recording at www.africaunsigned.com.. The hands of time chose us to be “leaders of the modern freedom fighters” striving for equal opportunities for all. Through our music we retell the story of SOWETO’s – past present future – from an introspective worldview. Our stories come from the depths of our people’s souls... We feel it is UP TO US to expose our accidental heros, who are unable to quench the thirst of urban street philosophers. WE ARE raw models for the youth in Soweto. We are confident, creative, hard working young people who transform frustrations and daily struggles into positive action. MUSIC.. We feel it is our duty to improve our communities and to show others that if we believe in ourselves and unite, we can make a change. We achieve our goal through our event company ‘Eleventh Element’, we organize events and workshops 3or4 times a year to create a platform for fellow musicians in Soweto. We dont only talk game BUT we back it up by delivering,our trackrecord is proof. RECOGNIZE.. The music we make is a fusion of pure Afro-ethnic sounds and sincere urban soul. Strong beats of the drum blended with guitars, saxophones and sounds of traditional instruments. Bells and whistles topped by rap, singing and howling voices. A fusion of innovation and tradition, of strong messages and a swinging beat, packaged in eleven South African languages. We will make you not only to listen, but to FEEL and you will feel , MUSIC IS OUR LIFE... It is music for the PEOPLE, by the PEOPLE, with the PEOPLE.....
