Wren Hinds:
“A terrific lyricist in a country where words are frequently struggled for.” - Diane Coetzer (Rolling Stone)
Wren Hinds is a musician and singer songwriter from the east coast of South Africa. Born into a creative family with his father Kevin Hinds being a musician (signed to EMI and Gallo in the 70's during the turbulent years of South Africa's history) and his mother Diane Erasmus, a well known South African landscape artist. The young songwriter shares his musical heritage with his brothers, Craig Hinds (Watershed) and Aden Hinds- and together the siblings perform and create music as the (South African Music Award) SAMA nominated harmony group- The Hinds Brothers.
Growing up in the tropical wonderland of KwaZulu Natal, set between the Indian Ocean and the rolling green hills of the midlands, Hinds grew up in an artistic household where his inclination to music was enhanced by his father's records, song- writing and work in his home recording studio. The beauty and tranquility of these surrounds were to become an emblematic factor in the creative evolution of Wren Hinds.
He has performed extensively throughout Southern Africa, including festival appearances at Oppikoppi, Splashy Fen, White Mountain, The Royal Show, Dullstroom Winter Festival, The Baxter Theatre, Design Indaba and various theatre’s throughout the country. This honest creative has shared a stage with some of the industry’s most respected contributors including American folk hero Willy Mason- South African legends and mentors Syd Kitchen, Steve Fataar (The Flames), Steve Newman (Tananas), Guy Buttery, Award winning Freshly Ground & the ‘King of Zulu guitar’- Madala Kunene.
