Nakhane Touré is a musician, singer and songwriter from Johannesburg and one of the rising stars in South Africa at the moment. The South African edition of Rolling Stone spent all much attention to him, even before the release of his debut album Brave Confusion in 2013 imploring His music mixes traditional African rhythms with indie rock. The stage name Touré may refer to his idol, Ali Farka Touré, but his inspiration comes just as much from Morrissey, Black Flag, David Bowie, Paul Simon and Radiohead. Its high, haunting voice does at times reminiscent of TV on the Radio, like the personal lyrics that ask more questions than they answer. Nakhane Touré is a restless soul who is trying to make sense of the world around him through his songs. The Guardian about his debut: "It's an enigma of a debut, rife with Complexities, swathed in a disarming honesty That holds you captive right through his tortured journey to clarity".
