Now, during July 2019, he will be releasing the second single from this album, titled, SOOS DIE WIND.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI wrote Soos die wind while I was still playing for and touring with Bobby van Jaarsveld. We were close to Riversdal and one of my friends, Juanel phoned and asked me to come to his baby girl, Ya\u2019El\u2019s christening the following morning. I then wrote, SOOS DIE WIND for her as a blessing over her life. The universal meaning of this song is also that, a blessing that we need to speak and hope for the people around us\u201d, says Joshua.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The musician, who is known for his soothing velvety voice, has produced this latest album himself. He went to a lot of effort to seamlessly interweave the finest melodies and lyrics with an interesting combination of contemporary and pop sounds to ensure a very striking end result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI have learned a lot during the recording process. On this journey, I met people who contributed so much more than what was expected of them\u2026 Ewald Jansen van Rensburg did the sound mixing and it was one of the most effortless collaborations of my life. It was nice to be able to trust someone so completely with what they were doing. Andy Maritz did the drum production and I often tell him that he saved the album,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eleven original tracks, one of which (Vlie\u00ebrs) is a duet with upcoming star Liani Reynolds, will guide fans through a spectrum of various human emotions and promise to keep them captivated from beginning to end and speak directly to the heart. The radio version of the hit Soos In Nou also appears as a bonus track on the album.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Joshua na die Re\u00ebn has been captivating audiences since his debut album, Joshua na die Re\u00ebn, was released in 2014. Since then, he has won several awards, including various Ghoema Awards (Joshua na die Re\u00ebn), a Huisgenoot Tempo, a SAMA (Die W\u00eareld Binne My) and a Woordfees prize. The artist has also written theme songs for movies like the box office hits Vir Altyd and Ballade vir \u2019n Enkeling (Voshaarnooi).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aside from Huisgenoot Skouspel and Gospel is Groot, this versatile star has also shared the stage with big names like Elvis Blue, Jak de Priester, Amanda Strydom, Laurika Rauch, Richard van der Westhuizen, Die Heuwels Fantasties and more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With SOMERAARDE\u2019s meticulous composition and soulful content, he not only exceeds his latest goal but also strengthens his place as a musician in the industry. His latest release promises to touch listeners\u2019 hearts and will be an asset to any album collection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
