about

“I am a storyteller, my songs say so…”

With a unique gift of storytelling and a voice to match, Sio has become a respected and much sought after vocalist both locally and abroad, with an uncanny ability to make hits that stand out, not only from the crowd, but each other. She seamlessly weaves her stories though house, electronic, soul and dance music and refuses to be confined to one style.
With a string of house anthems including 1000 Memories and A Dream Away, the Johannesburg based South African songstress, refuses to cave in to industry expectation. Her debut album sbtxts, is a capsule of story driven soulful, electronic sounds, that captures a time of a girl in love, in all its angst, desire and yearning.
In sbtxts, Sio shares very personal snippets of herself. Inspired by ‘the things that go unsaid’, she teams up with the UK’s Atjazz, and South Africa’s Luka, Daev Martian, Zain Valley and Jullian Gomes to show off her softer, more sensitive romantic side.

Like so many others, this came like a bolt out of the blue and, even though it's well before payday, I had to have this astonishing album on vinyl to prove it exists. The feel of the tunes makes me feel like the Impressions do, Curtis Mayfield, the big spaces and instinctive horns and stuff drifting in and out. Great grooves and I can see lots of ghosts nodding along to this with big smiles on their faces. At last! Anthony Cottrell
