Says co-founder of Headlinerz and Born to Perform; Matthew Marinus: "It's so great to see a song that Ryno Zeelie and myself wrote for one of our passion projects many moons ago having some new and fresh life being breathed back into it!”
He continues; “Shake and Dance is a song based around all the things that happen at a house party. The Buzz's vocals just took it into a space where it felt right and we were lucky enough to have industry professional Ayo Solanke lend his talent and expertise to this rocking track with his electrifying Saxophone parts!"
Gemma Donnelly Marinus, co-founder of The Headlinerz, Born To Perform as well as owner of Stageworx School of the Performing Arts expands; “Born To Performwas created to provide young performers a platform to showcase their talents and experience the professional world of entertainment. We are amazed by the success that has come from this platform with many of the performers moving into professional musicals, corporate events and TV and Film after making contacts from our Gala events.”
She continues; “Matthew and I recognised a huge gap in the music industry with regards to SA music being created for the Teen Pop market. Most of the music we hear from this genre is international so we are using our top music artists to create music and fill this gap. We are so excited about our first release Shake And Dance by The Buzz. This is only the beginning!”
