Anybody visiting the Seychelles will hear my music on the radio, in the hotels or in the streets and my music is one of the 'major exports' of the Islands. It demonstrates how the traditional Indian Ocean "Sega" music of the Islands can be blended with more modern influences to create a potent sound. My music has a unique style, and originality is very important to me - although the music has a Reggae/Sega beat, it has a real depth to the lyrics and something of a Salsa/Afro-Cross feel.

I was born on La-Digue, in the Seychelles, but moved to Australia aged 13 years and now spend my between there and my beloved homeland, the Seychelles.

I have released 9 albums of my own material, and have toured in Europe as well as performing at countless gigs in Australia and around the Indian Ocean - including large-scale Creole Festivals in the Seychelles.

I helped to pioneer adapting the unique Sega rhythm, timing and phrasing to the English language and in making the music more accessible to a global audience.

Hey Sonny. Thanks for responding to our current Friends drive and adding Bands@Manjimup. We are doing this because we have a few really exciting events coming up like our recent concert, on Friday 20th, featuring Elora Danan (photo below) on their debut album tour, Manji prog rock band Ashoka and Perth ambient rockers Laced Affair. It was a high energy show with fantastic sound, and those who came got to meet the bands for more than an hour afterwards. The pictures are now up as a slideshow. Check them out at the top of our profile.

Next, we'll be hosting the biggest regional event in this year's WAMi Festival calendar, on 22nd May. The support acts: Abbe May, Sneaky Weasel Gang, Desert Radio and Ashoka. The headline act for the concert will be Callerway. Following day Abbe (songwriting) , Drew Godart (guitar) from Karnivool, Roy Martinez (bass) and Nick Johnson (drum tuning, cymbal selection and kit set-up) from Eskimo Joe will feature as lecturers in our B@M Youth Muso Workshops.

The June gig will feature an even bigger headline band, probably supported by local heroes Ashoka and Electrostatik.

We'll keep you updated with bulletins and you may want to tap into the bands listed on our Top 40. You'll always find the performers at our next gig right up the top. At the other end you'll find bands that have recently played, followed by acts, who want to play at B@M. Send us a comment if you like them and they maybe get the go.

Lastly: PLEASE VOTE AGAINST DAYLIGHT SAVING! It prevents proper FX lighting at outdoors concerts before 9pm in summer. Especially for support bands.
It’s gotta go!!! Nag your elders if you can’t vote yet! Go viral on it and e-mail all your friends!
Peace, The Terminator
