This is probably about Rolling Stones drummer Charlie Watts. Or maybe Charlie Brown. Or Charles Bronson. Or Charles Bukowski. Maybe even Charlton Heston.

Why are men named Charles or Charlie or Charlton always so happy and full of song? Maybe something about being the stereotype beleaguered everyman just makes you want to sing.

So sing, damn you. Sing until they pull the song from your cold, dead vocal chords.

We just wanted to give y'all a HUGE thank you! The Singles - Season 4 has been the biggest release to date, and Isithandwa Sami is the single most downloaded song we've ever had!

We do this because we love to make music, not to please record labels or cater to the flavor of the day. We can't tell you how much it means to get such an overwhelming response to our music - so all we can say is thank you, and there's a lot more coming....

HERE and HERE and HERE and HERE

 

Now is the time.
Now.
