Folk jazz band Sereetsi & The Natives front man Tomeletso Sereetsi says their upcoming sophomore scheduled to come in April would be dedicated to his late father.

“Motoko is my late father’s first name. The album is a dedication to the man who raised me. He never heard me play a note except years later when my debut CD came out.
