“Mayine” — meaning Let it Rain — is a prayer carried through song. 🌧️

Through the ancient Xhosa practice of Ukombela, Suthu Mandlovu shares a chant of worship to Umvelinqangi, the creator — calling for cleansing, renewal, and blessings.

Rooted in the singing traditions of the eMampondweni, this expression of decolonised art carries ancestral storytelling through music, instruments, and poetry.

At the Planty Bru Vegan Music & Arts Festival, the prayer becomes something bigger — a moment where different people, cultures, and stories gather in one rhythm.

A reminder that music, community, and intention can bring us together…
like rain nourishing the same earth. 🌿🌧️

Thank you again from for capturing this incredible moment and creating a meaningful message 🫶

Join Erin Smith at 2pm at the Vegan Music and Arts Festival on January 31st for a Land Art Experience 🌼🌱

In this gently guided creative session, participants will be invited to immerse themselves under the trees of the Isithatha Theatre Complex, gather natural materials, and shape them into a collaborative, ephemeral land artwork. 🌀

There’s no need for any special skills or artistic training – just curiosity, care, and a willingness to collaborate. Spaces are limited so show up promptly if you’d like to participate in this session! ✨
