Makamba takes the plunge as a full-time solo artist
After more than a decade of serenading Eastern Cape crowds and scooping awards, Port Elizabeth songstress Thokozile Makamba is finally giving herself fully to her calling as a singer.
Makamba will soon release her first solo compilation of original music.
This is as the singer strengthens her solo brand as one separate from award-winning multi-genre band Clique Claq.The vocalist took a leap of faith in September and resigned from her corporate job to fully pursue music and other creative talents.
She has released a few singles before.
“The lockdown really made me rethink things and that led me to the decision to leave my job and give my music a real chance because through all these years I’ve been treating it as a second priority because I’ve always had a day job to focus on.
“It was a very scary decision but I’m happy with it and I believe it will lead me to the future I want for myself,” Makamba said.
The Clique Claq lead vocalist said she would continue to sing with the band while pursuing her solo career.
“The band and I have always had an open relationship because I was already kind of pushing a solo career before we met and started working together and somehow I’ve always been able to juggle both Clique Claq and just Thoko.“They are very supportive of my work and, while I do maintain that no-one [brand] is more important than the other I am [aware] that there is a season for each and right now is the season to push my solo brand,” she said.
