Holly Wasserfall, Durban's Musical Prodigy

Holly's musical journey began at a tender age of three, religously watching her uncle play a guitar, a music enthusiast, started playing the guitar at six and began songwriting at ten. Holly was the youngest artist to sign a deal with Sony Publishing (internationally, distribution)  at the age of 12, also signed to KZN Music House (recording).
Holly Wasserfall (stage name Holly), the music is a mature blend of Afro-Pop with a Hip Hop and Soul influence that transcend emotional stories, light hearted and deeply rooted social ills, alike with a feel good note. An academically gifted scholar at Eden College currently doing her grade 10 undoubtedly Holly songwriting/musical talent/voice is headed towards the Grammy's.

Holly twentyfourseven is due in stores soon, you will be blown away...

Holly's Band include; Aristides Manhique aka Harris from Mozambique whose been strumming those accoustic cords since 1995 and has worked alongside maskandi artists, Wonder "Jazz" Hlubi a charismatic character on bass guitar, Leeroy Khumalo on Drums the latest artist to join the band, Marciano Monjane on keys whose had an illustrious music career charting from 1990 with Ghovwane a Maputo based band that toured England and Ntuthuko Majola aka Drumkit a talented beat boxer of note.
Durban Street Culture had the privlege of getting a sneak peak at the album, definitely getting our street cred.
No wonder audiences have been in awe, past gigs have been the Fan Fest Park 2010 (South Beach), Durban World Music Festival 2010 and The Madiba Day at the Durban City Hall to name a few.
