Born and raised in the coastal town of East London (South Africa),she started singing at the tender age of six, as part of her church choir and went on to learn to play the piano on her own. “I am a self-taught musician. I enjoyed learning a skill without conscious awareness of the underlying processes of what is being learnt. In the process of curiosity you make mistakes, learn and grow because you have no scope or boundary tolimit you. It is for this reason that I do not like being boxed as a musician” explained CeeBoo. CeeBoo’s musical journey from church in later years migrated to poetry where she raided open mic sessions. Later, she would turn the poems into songs about her lived experience and things that she imagined. “The poetry sessions gave me the platform and confidence to be able to bare my soul infront of a live audience to examine what I had to offer artistically. When I turned to music my soul just soared, backed by the confidence that I was in full control expressing my art” chimed CeeBoo.

Their album was called Music in Me and helpedprofile her musical prowess. The musical odyssey culminated with Breaking Dawn her solo debut album. “Elements of Soul was an opportunity to test the market on whether they will receive the kind of music and message I wanted to deliver. It was a platform to hone my skills as an artist and focus on chasing the dream of making music to soothe, entertain and express myself” added CeeBoo.
