On a journey that can only be described as one of the monomyth variety, So Kindly emerges from the grass-root origins of small town, Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe. Committed to his vulnerability and a protector of honesty in songwriting So Kindly weaves through themes of love, loss and the human condition all characterized by his African upbringing - quickly captivating the hearts of those who cross paths with the music, converting even the most casual of onlookers into ardent supporters of a man chasing a dream.
Providing a rush of warm instrumentals, dynamic arrangements, lush guitar and distinct, earthy vocals telling it how it is, So Kindly's musicscape is reminiscent of Springsteen, Dire Straights and Paul Simon, all the while harnessing the essentials of modern radio-ready contemporary music.
Already making a significant impact, with nearly 2 million streams, 170,000 yearly unique listeners, and appearances on over 3,500 playlists on Spotify alone, 1883 Magazine describes him as "An emerging talent to keep an eye on." His most recent releases "Send Me a Sign" and "The River" have earned him widespread recognition featuring in magazines and blogs such as; Notion, 1883 Magazine and Wonderland.
Since the release of his Second EP "Nothing to Noise" in 2019 So Kindly has performed across Southern Africa, playing a myriad of festivals and venues including "Up The Creek Festival," "The Okavango Delta Music Festival," and "Victoria Falls Carnival". He recently relocated to London where he is continuing shows and is scheduled to perform at the "Soulstice Festival" this summer of 2023.
In late 2022, So Kindly joined forces with gold-record producer Jonathan Gilbert travelling to Los Angeles to record new material at Gilbert's studio, Wildflower Sound. The two have crafted a fresh rock-inspired sound that amalgamates the charm and vulnerability of So Kindly's earlier work with modern music innovation. These new songs lift the veil, offering an intimate look at the sacrifices, struggles, and heartache that come with pursuing one's life's calling. So Kindly is set to release these records later this year.
