Sereetsi & The Natives launch sophomore album

The album is dedicated to the late father of the group’s frontman, Tomeletso Sereetsi who told Arts & Culture that the launch will be a celebration of the unique Botswana four-string folk guitar traditionally made famous by giants like Stampore, George Swabi, Dikgang Malete and Sam Raditsebe to name but a few.

Sereetsi added that they featured the legends of the four-string tradition to also show the range of the instrument, its development and application. “Stiger Sola, Western and Solly Sebotso represent the very traditional approach to the four-string guitar while Sereetsi offers a more non-traditional approach. Interestingly, everyone of the artists has their own unique touch,” he highlighted.
