She performs in the Western Cape regularly and has just released her new EP, Bluroom Series Season 1. The eight-track EP is receiving good airplay with songs “Shadow” and “Love No More”.
When I’m singing. It’s the only time where nothing else matters but what's happening at that moment.
Creating something completely new and authentic – using stories I’ve lived through.
Humility drives me all the way. It’s the only way to grow.
I try my best to live my life understanding that we never stop learning and that there's always room for improvement. Makes the disappointments easier to handle and the achievements that much more rewarding.
I was busking at the V&A Waterfront one day and this random person wearing a red and green onesie came up to me and started singing at me with finger cymbals dancing to his own rhythm, having the time of his life. I could not stop laughing while trying to get through the song.
My box of souvenirs I have hidden in my cupboard. I usually take something small that I can fit into a shoebox from every influential gig or experience I’ve had.
Vodka and cranberry or Savannah Dry.
I think my voice stands out the most. As an acoustic musician, it's just my voice, my guitar and the story I’m telling.
Growing up my friends called me Micky and some family members called me Micky Mouse, which is longer than my actual name but okay. Now it varies from Mikaykay to Micky to Mixi or Caela – I go by many names.
I would be a multimedia designer because that’s what I studied after matric.
Kind-hearted, fun, passionate, loving, daring.
“Lief”.
I love jerseys.
“Dala what you must”, means do what you have to.
I have a few achievements, but the most recent one is singing alongside Craig Lucas.
I fear failure.
Close my eyes and get a little too lost.
I’ve played for a few cancer awareness charity events and sung on a global warming awareness song that brought singers from around the world together in one song called “Drops of Rain”.
I dream about one day being able to help people with my music.
