SteadyRock
Steadyrock has proved himself to be of world class caliber. Having produced music for international movie “Hidden Heart - The Story of Chris Barnard and Hamilton Naki” and also having contribute four songs for the locally popular “White Wedding” movie starring Kenny Nkosi and Rapulana Seiphemo, it is now wonder why he made the selection of strict criteria set by the international bodies involved.
Steadyrock performed alongside internationally renowned artists such as Shakira and Alicia Keys at Orlando Stadium for the World Cup 2010 international concert. “I believe my music is international, world class if I may say. This is a great opportunity that will truly showcase our art and diversity as Africans. When I met Black Eyed Peas over 2 years during their visit in Soweto, I never thought I would share a stage with them so soon.”- Steadyrock!
Although Steadyrock is not a new on the block as industry peers would attest. He began his solo career which led to formation of the concept of a band in 2007 when he released his EP “One World Citizen”. He has steadily gained popularity among industry circles and in the artistic society by largely performing at venues that appeal to a cosmopolitan, urban, youth and adult crowd around Johannesburg and Pretoria. The EP not only gave inspiration to the current album but paved a platform for exciting opportunities that have led thus far.
