Lerato Lichaba is a self-taught guitarist, composer, arranger and all-round conceptualist. His music style is inspired by his life experiences and how different cultures and traditions blend in the language of his music. This led to the birth of his recent project, Corners of Forgotten Theories, a new music language that will take listeners to a forgotten yet familiar place.
Corners of Forgotten Theories was inspired by the scarcity of knowledge that defines us as an African people beyond our modern lifestyle. We are increasingly moving away from our identity and cultural dominion and thus not putting into place structures and platforms that complement our traditions and heritage. This project, conceptualised by Lerato Lichaba, is thus a soundscape of musical freedom that aims to channel Africans as spiritual and emotional beings first.
